Hello :)
I checked our application status via e-cas for the first time today. It said there DECISION MADE. But for the life of me, i don't know when it is DMed. There's really no date indicated there? And will the embassy email me first before sending our PP? I included prepaid LBC envelope since DHL does not deliver in our (very remote) area.
hi everyone, I am checking my ECAS daily. I am expecting my visa to arrive this month. The manila visa office has been holding my passport for 6 months now.
timeline:
Application received by CPC > May 1, 2014
Sponsor approval > July, 6, 2014
Transfer to Manila Visa Office. > August 15, 2014
Medical exam > September 7, 2014
In Process > September 20, 2014
Passport sent > September 01, 2014
Additional document sent,newborn added (Birth Certificate sent > October 20, 2014
Newborn passport sent : December 5, 2014
still waiting for DM status
has anyone here with baby added in the application? how many months should I wait?
ECAS still in process for almost 6 months

My husband is waiting and excited to see his baby for the first time. :( :-X

Roughly is it safe to say that it would take at least 7-8 months before my wife will be able to come here in Canada?
I don't want to be pessimistic , but the average now would be more like18+ month.... (82 days for Sponsorship assessment, and 17 month for the PR process at the embassy....

you can get the info on the CIC website.

never had problem with external hard drive during travel. they don't care about it. they are more careful about laptops sometimes, but nothing to worry about

don't worry, as long as you remove the laptop from your bag when to go through security check, there is no problem. Also sometimes, they do some check ( looking for trace of something by using a paper) but that's it, no request to turn it on or to check what's saved in the laptop. I'm traveling often between Canada and Phils with my laptop and external hard drive, never had any issue. :)
