Mga kabayan, just checked my E-cas today, changed from "Application Received" to "IN PROCESS". What does it means?
I started my application last May 2008, waited for the 38 list to come out and received letter from CIC-MANILA last January 12, 2009 to submitt full applications for myself and my common law partner. Documents were proof of funds, NBI, FBI, LETTER OF EMPLOYMENT, IELTS RESULT , PHOTOS and completed application . We were given 120 days to accomplish all the requested documents. We provided all the requested documents through our lawyer based in Ontario last March 23, 2009.
My Ecas-was previously "IN PROCESS" and changed to " APPLICATION RECEIVED" and now "IN PROCEES " again. FYI, my application was not submitted to CIO for review, my lawyer submitted it directly to CIC - MANILA .
Life here in US is really hard nowadays and I am really excited to migrated to Canada soon and start a new life.
Good luck to all of us!!!!!
