Hmmmm, my wife never received a UCI. We just have the UCI that I got via email saying that I was approved as a sponsor. Did it take a while for your husband to receive that mail? I can see that my wife's application is in progress, so it's nothing huge to worry about. Would just be nice if I could see more details.

Thanks for all the help.
My spouse received his UCI in the AOR2, an email that was sent probably 2 weeks after I was approved/decision made on ECAS. It's nothing too big of a difference, it's mainly for the spouse to see their side of the process and upload any missing documents if requested for.

Inspired by daphnemaria, I went to check my MyCIC as well. I was also approved and my application is closed! So exciting! Already planning a trip down to the States to pick up my things from my dad's house and then land.

Good luck to everyone still waiting! I'm sure you'll be getting your approvals soon!
Such great news! Congratulations you guys!!

So I'm trying to link mycic GCKey to my application, and I got this message.

Number of Failed Registration Attempts Exceeded

For security purposes, you can only try to link an application to your account a maximum of 5 times in 24 hours.

:(

I'm entering all my info correct, and I keep trying different ways to enter it. Is there some way to make this actually happen?

For city of birth, my husbands city of birth worked as New Jersey rather than the actual city. Just a heads up, it can be entered as anything.

You can create another GCKey User ID with the same email address until you get it right.

Please try this combination, didn't work for me but this has helped others:

Not mine. Credit goes to the owner.

"1. Logged in with GC Key account.
2. Permanent Residence > Family Class (Spouses)
2. Application Number and Family Name - Copy/pasted application number from email (including the F) and entered PA's last name. If you don't have App Number, use Family Name, Birthday, Place of Birth
3. City of Birth - I entered 1 space (hit spacebar once)
4. Country of Birth - Selected PA's country of birth
5. Passport Info - Did not enter any passport info
6. Other Application Info - Filled out the other application info as per our application and put '2' as the number of members in the application."

Good luck!
1 space would work rather than your actual city of birth? Oh my word.... thanks for the tip, I'll try that and see if that works after my 24 hours are up.

Hello everyone
My ECAS just went to "in process" in PA side ...
anybody have a clue how long in takes "approximately" from this point?
I am glad to see some movement
Stay cool
Depends on your VO.. check out the thread for your specific VO to see what the average time is at the moment. Official CIC website says 11 months for Rome VO from the date they received your application.

So, I logged into ECAS, and there's only 1 of 4 of the lines I had on the SA side left. The PA side is untouched. What does it mean? Could it be that someone was looking at my file? Worried...

Probably some glitch in ECAS. Mine is doing the same thing right now.

Just letting everyone know, today my eCAS changed to Decision Made, which I've heard means they've sent out the COPR. Hopefully, I'll receive it soon!

Good luck, everyone!
