Hello !
I need to give all the applicants some information which might be helpful to many.
I received PER mail on the 3rd July, and even after a week or so, I could not access e-CAS, it always showed the message that the information provided may be incorrect and there are no records matching the data.
I called cic, and they asked me to send an email to "question @ cic.gc.ca". Additionally, the agent gave a very nice idea, he asked me to write "Follow up required" in the subject to get the response in a day or two otherwise the response will be given in 30 days.
Let me paste the mail that the cic agent had sent to me.

After I sent them the email in above format, I received a response in one day.
In fact the response was a little bizarre.
I was asked to enter my full name in the "Surname/Last Name" field instead of my last name.
And I could see my ecas status.
P.S. All those who have received PER mail and are unable to view the status, may try entering full name (first name + middle name + last name)
All the best to everyone.
Rgds,
(+1)
