Morning Mrs P! We were all hoping Mr P would be there, but I guess webcam and video is the next best thing!
Hey RG, I see you feel the change in weather too. Seems that summer is waning quickly and fall is already knocking at the doors! I can't wait for pictures of the leaves turning, I love this time of year.
Oh, as an aside, I got two emails from the eCAS tracker on Saturday too, and I now see the same two lines of information as others have mentioned. It would seem the new system has re-arranged the information, there are now two lines with my name, one saying "Decision Made" which must refer to the sponsor approval for my husband, and one which says "In process" which must refer to KG receiving my file. I doubt it means anything more than them just creating my electronic file, because it says "We started processing XXX application on May 24."
I am hoping that the changes mean that more information will be forthcoming from the GCMS system via eCAS. Instead of silence and random updates months apart, maybe they will give us more information, like "background checks initiated", "initial review completed" etc etc. I don't know about you guys, but one of the things that causes me the greatest frustration/anxiety is the sheer lack of information on the progress of the processing. I mean, they have computers, surely they can use them to better advantage. It would stop people from emailing them all the time, having to request CAIPS notes, needing to involve their MPs etc etc. Just my tuppence, anyways. It remains to be seen whether GCMS will actually enhance the process. We can always hope!
