Are you with Etobicoke Office? As I hear it can take up to 6 weeks for an interview with them.
Yes with Etobicoke.
I'm just concerned as I don't know how they send the request for appointment. Does it come to email or it shows in my CIC account as well?
Also ECAS says decision made and account still stuck at Background check. Note sure why there is that discrepancy.
They usually send the interview request through email or via gckey account. However be sure to check your spam folder regularly as I've read up the emails can go there.
As for the gckey account not updating, don't worry about that too much because that's how mine looks. It still says background check processing and reviewing eligibility despite decision made on both ends + eligibility passed. I believe i was told it will update after your interview or nearer to the time. So I believe you'll be fine as we're similar in terms of what's happening.
You will recieve the email in 5 to 6 weeks not before that!. My wife's dm was in dev 27th and they sent interview letter on feb 2nd.
How do they send the interview request - Mail / E-mail / Message in CIC account?
Have you heard anything yet? My decision made was January 21st 2020 with Etobicoke office. CIC says 6 weeks and that I should hear something by March 3rd
Nothing yet. We called in this morning and were told we should get an email by March 6th.
One of my colleague was in similar situation, when she called she received the email next day.
God knows what's their working process. It's all over the place!
Good luck!!
Let me know when you get it.
I appreciate the reply. Being so close to the end and still having to wait 6 weeks is the hardest part! I’ll keep you updated
I know I am late replying to this but I had to wait 3 months as well to get my coverage. I came on a work permit pending spousal sponsorship approval. Once I was granted the work permit I had to get a job. Once I found the job I had to get my employer to right me a letter to take to service Ontario. They take your picture and give you the date your benefits become active. The card came 3 days before the active date. Maybe this is a thing for US citizens as I’m from the US
