Just for tracking on the sheet - do you know when your status changed to In Progress in ECAS?

I finally see ECAS status updated to In Process. On the new tracking system, I had couple of ghost updates but all status are still In progress. Hoping to see some progress. Thanks.

Hey guys,
My application status on ECAS changed to In Process as of today (Oct 27). Citizenship Tracker has no change, showing In Process since I received AOR on Sep 7.

Need some input on web form.

There are 2 ways

(1) https://secure.cic.gc.ca/ClientContact/en/Application/Form/69
or
(2) https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx

I used 2nd one twice to get my application number as I never got AOR with the application number. But I came to know about my application when I checked on old ecas and got an email from them to register on the new tracker.

But I got a standard reply twice from 2nd option that they are processing Afgan refugees files & urgent matters. Turn around time is very quick when used 2nd option.

Does anyone use 1st option & give me some timeline on a reply from them?

Just found out about the status update when I received the email.
The status change happened on 10/26 and the test email came on 10/28.
You should get getting the email anytime now, perhaps tomorrow.

Guys my application is still in progress and my BG check is still in progress also

BUT

I noticed at the left upper top corner that my application (last updated) date has changed to 26th of october ? Does this means somthing? It was september 10th a couple of days ago?

I’m not sure if this means my application is moving although everything is still in progress including the BG check

Under my tracker, it's say In progress on language, background check, physical presence usually do they update from In progress to completed all at once or as and when they finished?
