Thanks God, Wonderful news, I have just checked, it is the the same here :), "We started processing your application on August 26, 2014."
Till yesterday, there was nothing, regarding the year, I guess it is an error, it should be 2015 not 2014 ....

What about the others?.

Guys breaking news!

New line added to my ecas status:

We started processing your application on 26th August 2014

So it says 2014 not 2015...which is strange.. But at least it's some news to break the deadly silence

Nothing received so far in terms of MR or anything else

Please check your ecas... All the best
 
Alhamdule'Allah, me too guys... I had the new line... indeed I confirm it... after all that time... I can't believe it :)

We started processing your application on August 26, 2014
 
Good Morning Bros
me too on September 10, 2014
:)

so I guess the dates are right 2014 and not 2015 as per my date which is in September
 
I thought it is a mistake because, today is 26 of Aug, and they updated the system today and me and MidWiz got the same date....
But, after your submitted yours, it is clear, the date is correct.

One more note, hope will be positive .. I checked my GCMS report, and it shows that my file reached CPC-Ottawa on 26-Aug-2014 (before it got transferred to Emababa VO in Sep), so this may mean that Ottawa VO is processing our files .... let us wait and see.

you mean when you sent your file after you got CSQ to Fedral they sent it again to Egypt ?
 
so when do you think they will send us the MR ?
 
Amr, how it works:

ALL applications are sent to CIO in nova scotia (we call it federal), and then CIO would do some work on the file and them send it to the visa officer which will process the file till the end.

For us, CIO sometimes send some files to Ottawa and others to Embaba VO, I think depends on workload in each office.

Hope it is clear now.

yeap it's now clear thanks AbdelAllah ;)
 
It depends on the VO, I saw cases took more than 6 months, others, in less than a month.
It is a patience game bro ... we all can (and should) pray ....

:) thats not what was on my mind
I remember seeing cases that received the MR few days after having the 2nd line updated
 
Oh, to be honest I didn't see this, but we hope so...
In my opinion, our cases are different as it has been a year since VO has received our applications, besides, I think we are few who got their files stuck in Embaba VO ... so hope when they start, they finish fast.
Again it depends on VO ...

yes, you are right.
one more point; I think we need to call CIC again to know where the files are now, I think by now they should be able to tell us where the files are exactly.
I will try to call them again today, please everyone here try to call them and extract this information from them
 
Yes, very good point, we tell them that today we have seen this update on ECAS and ask about the processing VO ...
Let us do our homework ;)
