You brought that up and I noticed I have a UCI as well from my study permit. I didnt notice this when I was applying for the spousal sponsorship so I didnt include it in my app. Do you think I can give it to them later? Hopefully lol. Nonetheless I tried to log onto ecas with it and it didnt work, do I need to add the dashes in it?
Nevermind, I found the answer on CIC website, says it shouldnt be an issue, and I assume it wont especially since I sent a copy of my study permit (which has the UCI # on it) with the application package. this is what it says on the website:
This eight or ten digit number looks like this: 0000-0000 or 00-0000-0000.
Look for this number on:
- letters we sent you
- your immigration document such as a PR card, study or work permit
If you do not have any of these documents but want to fill out an application form, you can leave the field for UCI (Client ID) blank.
If you have not dealt with us since 1973, you will not have a UCI or a Client ID.
