Can someone please help me? When I am in the "case specific enquiry" I fill everything out and get an error persay. When I enter my email it says "must be entered Name @ domain.xyz"

What the heck does this mean?!?

It's been over a month since Singapore recieved her passport :(
Did you turn on Caps Lock? If so, turn Caps Lock off and it should work.

My wife got a package from
Singapore. No passport they just sent back all the proof.

What the hell is going on? Does this mean an interview now? Why would they request her passport and then not give her a visa I don't understand?

This is the saddest day of my life :(
I'm sorry to hear about your story. Have you ordered GCMS note yet?
My e-cas status changed to "In Process" on May 12, started to worry...

We submitted our application in July 2013. Feb 9 2014 we started processing. April 9 ( I think) they contacted my wife for her passport. April 28 our Ecas status reverted back to "application received" and today we got the interview letter may 20 :(

How can I order GCMs notes?

I can't believe they asked for passport and then gave an interview letter

Hi Spacely84,
Here is what I found in this forum for GCMs notes:
GCMS notes is a copy of the information that the immigration officers have SO FAR entered on their system concerning your wife's file. It's through the Access to Information Act. You go to this site https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do and follow the links. Your wife will need to fill out a form allowing you (a Canadian) to access her information. Most likely, this means she will need to print off a copy, sign it, scan it, and email it back to you.

It costs $5 and you will receive the notes electronically or by mail (up to you) in 30 days.

They take some getting used to when trying to read them. After 4 months, it will likely not say much other than whether they believe your relationship is genuine and whether they recommend an interview or not. It should also indicate if there are any preliminary red flags on your application. Much of the notes are in Immigration code (it's part of the game) so you will probably need to spend some time deciphering some abbreviated terms.

Thanks Maron.

It wants to know if I'm requesting information on my own behalf? This is slightly confusing
Hi,

You can apply for GCMS Online. As a SPONSOR, you will be applying for information of your wife's PR file on behalf of her. Follow the below procedure:

1. Fill up the form:

2. Tell your wife to fill up, sign, scan and send you back the consent form:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5744E.pdf

3. Fill up the online application:
https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/

Attachments: Attach the following documents with the online application
The two forms of above.
Give a copy of your PR card or CoPR
Give a proof of Canadian address (e.g. Bank letter or Hydro letter or Income Tax letter showing your Canadian address)

At the end of the application, you will be forwarded to the payment option, you need to pay $5 with credit card.

Hope it helps.

Did your ecas change to in process?? I think you just have gave them photocopy of the passport pages and proof of sponsor visiting, best would if you have tickets boarding card, stumps on passport pages....I think that would give you a little help..

I have submitted GCMS and case specific enquiry. Hopefully I get to see some light at the end of tunnel soon. It's been a long long wait. Right now even a status change will brighten my day a bit!!

Hey Spacely84,

Very sorry to hear about what happened!! I don't think what happened to you is normal....usually when they request an applicant's passport, that means the interview has been waived. It's VERY bizarre.

You really should contact your MP to find out why your wife needs to attend an interview. Just do that and let us know it goes...and I sincerely hope that the interview letter was mistakenly sent...!! All the best mate!
