Do they change the E cas status of Application received to Application process has begun..
The information given below is for all us who get worried when we don't see any updates on E-cas. I had shared this before but it doesn't hurt to share it again when it helps us to ease up a little bit, right?
Hi all,
Given below is some of the information I came across and thought of sharing it with you'll. Hope it helps.
Why has the status of my application on CAS not changed, even though I sent it a long time ago?
Client Application Status (CAS) may not show some activities on your file for many weeks. That is because the visa offices and the case processing centres get a lot of information.
In many cases, an in-process file is actually waiting in a queue for initial review. Applications are handled in the order they are received and on a case-by-case basis. The waiting time in this queue can be long. Applications are processed according to the application processing times at a given location.
In addition, CAS does not show some other actions—such as security checks—at all. So it may appear as though nothing is happening to your file, even though you have had interactions with Citizenship and Immigration Canada recently.
How can I update or ask about an application in progress?
If your application is already in progress, use the Client Application Status (CAS) service. This online service allows you to view the status of your immigration and/or citizenship application online.
You can also use the Case Specific Enquiry link on the website for the visa office if:
• you wish to report important changes regarding your application, such as
o births,
o deaths,
o marriages,
o divorces,
o adoptions,
o changes in address,
o changes in employment,
o acquisition of a new educational credential or
o results of an approved language test;
• you are seeking information that is not available via the Client Application Status service; or
• the processing of your application is taking longer than the normal processing time
(you will not get an answer if the normal processing time has not yet elapsed).
How often is the information on the Client Application Status (CAS) service updated?
CAS is updated weekly. Please check the application processing times to see how long it will take to process your application.
The Client Application Status site is updated weekly, usually on Tuesdays.
Just a suggestion - We don't need to check E-cas daily and save ourselves from the worry we go through when we don't see any updates. We can check it on every Wednesday as for the rest of the days it remains the same.
Good luck with your applications. Hope we all get our PRV's soon.
