Is E-Cas still being updated?

[djoli]

Hi all,

I am just curious, does anyone know if CIC is still updating E-cas to reflect test and Oath dates? It seems like they have completely stopped updating the website meaning applicants can solely rely on the old fashion mail to get their invites and I am not sure if they are doing this deliberately. I have come across numerous instances where people have taken the oath of citizenship when their E-cas shows no signs of them even taking the test. Please advise.

Thanks

I have now received two test notices by mail (as I had to reschedule the first one) and my E-Cas shows no updates whatsoever regarding my test invites.....

This is a known issue for ages, especially past test stages. It takes long to reflect or some times all together to Completed at once after test invite. Never blindly believe e-cas to reflect everything.

I guess we cannot rely on Ecas anymore so we are left with the old fashion mail system. I don't understand why CIC would not email people directly versus sending out an actual letter. This could have something to do with the fact they still suspect most people that apply for citizenship do not actually live in Canada, they are wrong.

Me too I did my test three months ago and Ecas did not updated. Also heard other people said their Ecas changed complete after they the test and ceremony. :-X

They do,but not on real time. And it's delayed for maybe a month. So do not rely on e-cas.

I thought we live on the 21st century! why should we rely on a mail to get updates from CIC? why can't they email/call people to schedule tests/oaths? In a lot of developed countries they use emails to communicate. They are deliberately doing this people they suspect that most applicants that apply for citizenship do not live here which ridiculous.
