Thank you all for your well wishes....
For those curious to know how long it takes for ECAS to be updated....we received DM/PPR email (to both email addresses on file) on Jan 7 and I just checked the sponsor ECAS this morning and under the applicant it said Decision Made (unfortunately, I had not bothered to check ECAS regularly once we had received the email).
When I click on the applicant "Decision Made" (sponsor ECAS) nothing had change though..only three lines (we received app, we started processing app, medical results received) however when I checked my husband's ECAS, he has four lines under his Decision Made - with the three above and the 4th one being "we sent you correspondence...)
We submitted the passport via VFS (Wafi) yesterday and my husband was told he would receive it in 4 - 5 days. We'll see on that one
I just want to pass on encouraging words to everyone who is still waiting. It may seem that they are not doing anything with your file but based on my interactions with ADVO they are working as quickly as possible to process applications. After we submitted everything, we provided some updates when things changed (i.e. residential address, my status in UAE, etc) and heard nothing from them until the DM / PPR email.
Will keep you posted...
In the meantime, is there anyone that can volunteer to keep the spreadsheet updated going forward? The work is fairly minimal...just encourage people to add their timeline (we have made it so anyone with the link can edit and it hasn't presented any problems)...and then change their rows to the appropriate colour (I don't have it set up to do it automatically....but it can be done if you know how)..
Take care...and know that God / Allah is looking after you...
