I tried.... but nope, does not work.

I think from August 16th we both are still waiting for CIC to react you for AIP and me for OWP, somebody does not do his work as he should. Although my letter was not signed by BS.....
are you using the UCI number and pulling down that box to select it?

does anyone else have the same problem?

CIC and their website sucks!!!
As I said before, I have the same thing. It was working for months, but now it's nothing for the sponsor, the same error message like yours.

Me, I can still log in to my husband (sponsor) e-cas.
I thought that after the SA they will close the sponsor's e-cas since there will be no more application in process.

That's great, but has anything been posted to the CIC website about this?

Again...this is GREAT news. Especially if it's grand fathered for those that already have AOR!

This is a great news. The hard, persistent work from all the Inland applicants finally paid off!!
I hope they start the program as soon as possible... Will they start sending OWP to all of 2013, 2014 applicants first? I really hope so..cuz I (my wife) should be the FIRST ONE to receive it. LOL

Hey Civic, do you mind sharing the the CBC link where this news has been confirmed? I couldn't find it.

Agreed! Those that have already received AOR, that submitted an OWP, should be first in line...followed by those with AOR that had not submitted an OWP.

This is amazing! So proud of everyone here (and others) who wrote to their MPs, petitioned the government, and went to the media with this. This is our doing and great news.
