Took a look at the website trackitt.com and found some interesting stats for Buffalo:

It will take approx 1 month for AOR, and 1-2 months for Initial Decision. So, for us, Maybe we will get AOR from BUF by April 30, and Initial Decision by June 30. So excited/annoyed/stressed/happy that the first wait is done, but so much more waiting is coming until we know there is an interview. :eek:

I think the latest we've seen so far is March 8th. With Easter coming up and probably alot more people taking holiday , etc this week, that may have slowed you down a couple days... but sounds like it should be soon for you! I'm hoping we'll hear something on ours in a couple weeks... fingers crossed for all of us!

Maybe inland and outland applications process timings are different.

Hi guys! I was able to log in on e-cas today! It said they received our application to sponsor on March 11 and they processed it on April 1. It also says "Decision Made" and that they mailed a letter regarding this decision. I hope it's good news! :D

Oh, man, mine was received on March 10 and still can't log on. Marky, what ID number were you able to log in with? I have a receipt number and a client ID number and I tried both, each with my surname and birthdate/location information and my sponsor's. Nothing. I will give it a few more days before I start getting nervous!!

Thanks for posting everyone, it's nice to know.

You got the client # even before you got the AOR? How that happened? 8)

I have a visitor record currently and I had a student authorization 10 years ago (I met my husband in university in Canada, as a matter of fact). Same client ID on both of those, so I assume that's my client number for life with the CIC.

Interesting.. I can't comment further if you should use client # or not. I am sure Receipt # should work!
Well, sign up with ecas tracker which will send you an email once your file is activated....

Now I'm really started to get worried. Our app was received on March 3rd, BEFORE other people on here who've already received "decision made" statuses. I still can't log on to eCas. I only have a Receipt number...I just don't get how they process the apps over there at CIC-M. It seems kind of random. Ahhhhh!
