I think when sending anything to them you need to use the web form available online.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp

You can upload a scanned copy of the clearance there I believe and as well provide all the details that are required.
I think that's what they meant. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong!
Thanks for providing this link in your earlier reply to another poster taniam00
I wasn't aware of this link but because you posted it I was able to use it today to supply an additional document.
Thanks again. :)

I think it's a bit early for May applicants to get SA at this time.
Yah, I'm waiting for the first May Applicant to post that they got SA. That's way better news than AOR1!

no

your application was submitted just over a month ago. it is taking longer than that to get sponsor approval. ecas is not a reliable source to know what is going on with your application.

Hi badpusacat,
Do they send any other applicants to Ottawa in addition to American applications?

I'm an April applicant, but thought I'd answer your question.

They sure do. I talked to CIC and they said applicants that meet "certain criteria" can be sent to Ottawa. I asked what that criteria was and they didn't give me much - said that it depends on the Country they are from and if they require a visa to come to Canada or not among other things.

My husband is Irish and his application went to Ottawa.

Hey all,
So when I sent my application off, I didn't have my FBI Clearance yet, but included a letter stating that it would be sent to accompany the application as soon as I got it. I got it a week later and sent it off. I also emailed a scanned copy of it *just in case* with a note saying the hard copy was on its way. I just received this reply to the email. What the heck does this mean?! lol ...I'm not sure what I should be doing? Any help would be much appreciated.



"Please do not reply to this email.

Hi EKate20132015!

I will be in the same situation than you as I need to soon send my FBI clearance to CIC (after already mailing the application package earlier). Can I ask which address you used, and did you have your UCI already? I will use the webform for the copy as well, but since they clearly state that the criminal records should be the original document I want to mail them it.

Thanks a lot for your answer in advance!
