Does any one know why the local office name not mentioned in the ecas?
It telling only office responsible for your area.
I was expecting to be Scarborough as I am from east end of GTA .

Different cases are being handled differently. I have seen a lot of cases from mid-November onwards whose E-CAS mentions the local office transfer. but it is still not 100% consistent. Applications before that never mention the local office name or transfer on E-CAS. I just called CIC and I was told my documents were sent to Scarborough on 21st Jan. So, I said, is that my local office now? And the agent said, not necessarily, for GTA, Mississauga, Scarborough and St Clair share the work. So, RQ was requested by Mississauga but then the RQ response was sent to Scarborough. God only knows how someone can find out anything for sure.

So i finally have updates :)

recap : sent in my application - 10th Nov, 2014.

Delivered: 14th Nov, 2014 (although CIC says they received it Nov 18, 2015)

Received email AOR: 4th Feb, 2015

I didn't have access to my e-cas for the longest time. I do now.

This is what it says:

We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on November 18, 2014.

We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on February 4, 2015. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

Your file was transferred to the office responsible for your area on February 11, 2015. The office responsible for your area will contact you.


Well, it doesn't say which office, so I'm assuming Hamilton?

Any idea of how long before I hear from them?

Thanks!

Hey Guys,

I notice in the spreadsheet many of us are still awaiting e-CAS to be active. It's been a week since I got my AOR, and mine's not active yet.

Any thoughts? I thought by now I would see something.....I'm happy to have the AOR, but still....

Mine just activated this morning (received AOR over a week ago), and status only says received.

Im sure your e-cas will be active any day now.

Hello, Here is my track.

1. Application has been received : November 7, 2014.

2. AOR: January 15, 2015.

3. Started processing your application on January 16, 2015.

4. Transferred to the Scarborough Citizenship Operations office on January 20, 2015.

I am not sure if they gonna ask RQ or not. I just submitted application and documents as guide document says. so I didn't submit any my residence record or Tax record etc while some ppl submitted voluntarily.

Another update: As of this morning, my Ecas has been updated from "received" to "In process" and from "local office" to "Hamilton"

I guess things are finally moving along :)
