Congrats to all those who've received good news! Your progress gives the rest of us hope that this thing is actually moving!

I haven't heard back yet either but then again I can't really complain yet as buffalo received my application on 30th September and cashed my bank draft on december 2nd.

hey guys,
We got so many good news lately. Just thought of updating with who received AOR, PR request... Also if you haven't heard back from Buffalo yet like me please say so... I, myself am awaiting AOR and my WP expires end of May. But, I strongly believe in the miracle Maker and thus won't renew it. If your WP expires stay calm and follow what your heart tells you: but please stay calm, you'll have it dude!
I also haven't got anything from Buffalo yet. Applied in 10th August from Montreal as a single applicant.

ae03yy, sorry to hear that your WP expires soon. But I believe everything will work out for both of us.

I have a strong feeling that we might have something in this week.

Hi guys,

Me and my wife did medical exams, today. It took us 2.5 hours. We did Urine test, Blood sample, Eye test, Chest X-ray and finally met a doctor asking us some general questions. He said every thing is OK.

He mentioned that we would be PR in two months! I asked him if he is sure and he again said yes, maximum two months. Anyway, we did what we could. Let's see what will come up next :)

Two months! I hope he is right. :p
I sent an email to buffalo last week for checking if our medical exams have been received. They sent me back a standard template without giving me the answer.
It's weird. My friend said they usually would tell you this kind of information before.

Things look like they are moving in buffalo for Quebec workers. I was able to access ecas for the first time today, hopefully AOR and meds will be on the way soon. It shows in process with the message 'We started processing your application on March 1, 2011'. My appliaction was sent Nov 9 2010 with the money order cashed January 11 2011.

Hi bigkev82, are you applying from within Canada or from outside?

Hello Bigkev82,

I am also trying to access my ecas, but shows nothing. I applied in Nov 2, 2010 to Buffalo as quebec skilled class.

1- Can we use our client id from study permit ?
2- My cheque was chased on Jan 1, 2011 but still see no update on ecas ?

Thanks

Eng_Mtl, you can use your client id on your study permit, just don't forget to put "-" in the middle. You have to type XXXX-XXXX.
And on ecase, they don't tell you when they charge you.

Fairooz: I'm applying from within Canada, i got my CSQ under the PEQ program, i'm currently working and living on the south shore of Montreal, have been here for around 3 years now.

EngMtl : 1. I assume that the client id from the study permit would work. I am in canada on a 2 year working holiday permit, i used the 8 digit client number off that, i was a bit surprised that it actually worked. I had been trying once a week every tuesday since a couple of weeks not expecting it to be linked with my PR request.

2. I have no idea how buffalo works, i assume that they must have some kind of prioritising on a case by case basis. Even though i can see my ecas online is in process, i'm still playing the same waiting game as you.

`

I'm not sure if this is 100% necessary, i just entered the 8 numbers (without the '-') and it worked. I just went and checked now and both with and without the famous '-' work for me. Just another unsolved mystery in the PR process!

what' the BF Date on your CAIPS notes? if you don,t mind sharing! Also, do they say if you did med'l exam.
If we have to wait 2 mths from Medical exam, then I'll be short in days by the end of the month if they don't begin processing my file soon.
Oh brother?! Yeah ... ayons foi en Dieu.

Weird. I sent my application early September, and my cheque was encashed early November. I'm also working in and applying from Montreal, and my ecas still doesn't work! sigh...
