About a week after sending my OWP (separately on Feb 9), my sponsor got an email saying they started processing her application and we were able to log onto ECAS but only with her UCI number. I assumed that it was related to my OWP as I was only at about 8 months since applying for PR with about 9 more to wait for AIP. For the past 2 months or so, I would log into ECAS to see the same messages (application received on..., we started processing your sponsorship application on..., etc.). We have not received anything from CIC since that email to my sponsor in February.
Now this weekend, I noticed that I can no longer log into ECAS. I tried (and retried) her UCI, my UCI and the application number, all to no avail. Is this bad? Did this happen to anyone else? Is the system just down or something?
Could this mean they processed my OWP application?
Did they simply process her sponsorship application and the sponsorship approval letter/email will come soon?
