Hello!!

Please I wonder if some of the people who got AIP yesterday have seen an update in their e-cas other than decision made.

Sorry guys, but I'm getting nervous , my application was received Mars 30 and I think I'm next.. I called yesterday but the agent didn't give me any detail about where my process is...
I hope the hear good news soon.

Hello Gemauru thanks!!

But there is not update in my e-Cas... at least not yet... Maybe in some days, maybe next week. I hope!! I called today and the agent told me the first stage takes 11 to 12 months, so I have to wait

Frustration! So called CIC just now and the online status is apparently incorrect. File is still in Kitchener and has not been transferred back to Vegreville. I was told to ignore the online status. So from now on I wont even bother to check online..too upsetting.

Hi. Just sharing some experiences in talking to visa call center agents lately:

ME: I would like to get my Client Number because I am planning to send an additional document to CPC. I sent my PR application in December 2011.

AGENT 1: Sorry, processing is 11-12 months, therefore, your application has not been opened yet as of today (Feb 15, 2012).

Two hours later, I called again:
AGENT 2: We are currently opening envelopes received on Nov 2011. There is a 3-month delay in opening envelopes. So you may send your additional document now so that by the time they open your envelope in March 2012, you'll be able to catch up.

ME: I thought the website says you are only opening March 2011 applications as of now?
AGENT 2: Yes, we are opening envelopes received on Nov 2011, but we are processing March 2011 applications.
ME: I see

Now, this makes me think that after envelopes are opened, they sit for 6 months or more before they start the acual processing. OMG!

hi johanna125,

i also sent my PR app in Dec 2011. i tried to use the UCI no to login my ecas, however, it keeps on saying

Thanks a lot for your contribution. Actually, we did submitted for extenssion of Visitor visa , OWP with immigration application at the same time inclusion of our 2 kids. But to my suprise they claimed that Visitor visa application was missing. When I called them again they directed me to submit another copy ASAP last November to their Team Leader at Vegreville in AB. With Canada post reciept as a prove that we did sent the application initially and a copy that I kept in my file. We recieved only one TVR for my wife yesterday when we're expecting AIP. What about the two kinds? CIC are really confused !!!. I will call them today and ask to speak to thier supervisor and iron out the issue.It seems our application was just sitting on someone desk without any attention. This is ridiculous!!. It's almost a year now.

If you have a simmilar experience please share !!!

Thanks, Akinmike

Hi All,

I did called CIC this morning, I was very lucky to speak to a nice agent. Everything was ironed out very well. All the documents were on file. Although, my case is quite different from all of you. I moved to US about 8 years ago to work as a Canadian. My family migrated to the States from Africa under US visa . Now ,we all moved back to Canada. I applied for extension of TRV, OWP and PR at the same time almost a year. We have just received the extension of their TRV . The agent told me that AIP OWP and PR is in Process and few days I should receive approval for AIP or probably PR. I am happy now.

OMG I hadnt had the chance to see the updates, and march is almost done. how strange we are so few applicants in april . Im getting nervous. does everyone feel the same way?

 

[blistex]

just an update of the letters from CIC. I finally received the letters they said they sent us on feb 12, which i never got, and on ECAS, my status was updated to decision made on feb 20, but the call centre agent said they didn't have any info about that. Then today, i finally got 2 letters from CIC. one for me and one for my husband. mine says that my application was completed and i will be contacted by the CIC office in my city and need to pay $490 landing fee when i get the confirmation of PR.

so if you did not get the first letter of AIP that they said they sent you, you might be in the same situation of me. I think CIC is working so fast that they confused themselves. but at least they are moving!

Hello tzing, just a question, what is your local cic office? do you know when are they going to contact you for your PR? I have in the same situation. I posted a question here but nobody's giving me an answer.
