I've got some interesting - if not slightly puzzling - news!
I received an email this morning from CIC...it says:
"UCI: XXXXX
Application No: XXXXXXX
This is an automated message. Please DO NOT RESPOND to this message.
Dear XXXXXX
This confirms that your application for permanent residence in Canada has been received by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) on 2011/11/05"
Firstly, our application was received on the 2nd, and signed for by CIC at 9:30am, but the email says they received it on the 5th November - not that it matters, but is the 67 days counted from the 5th or the 2nd, when it was actually received? I'm glad we received our UCI number, but we still can't access e-Cas.
Secondly, I'm the sponsor - but it says they 'received my application for permanent residency'.
Confusion! ??? But at least I know it's definitely in the queue!
Has anyone else received this email yet?
