Thread for March 2011 Applicants!

[pogobb]

I remember reading on another thread on these forums where someone's address on ecas was incorrect, however the Delhi visa office was mailing correspondence to the correct address.

Oh! I really hope so!! It's been nearly 10 days and I didn't receive any emails from them at all !! I wonder what's their criteria to send someone an email or not?!

Thanks greymatter! I guess I'll know whether they put the correct address if I receive my letter in the next few days and not weeks!

they put the WRONG country of birth for me...no wonder i couldn't check my status online!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyhoo, it says decision made online and that my letter was sent out on april 21 but no sign of it before i travelled (i'm in ottawa and mississauga to ottawa should be 3 days max by mail)

I phoned the Call Centre and they advised that they began working on our app yesterday . She gave me our Client ID number, but I am still unable to log in to E-Cas even though she said I should be able to. So she said she was going to transfer me to their online services and of course, we got disconnected.

I e-mailed the tech support and am hoping for a reply (the auto-reply said FIVE days). I'd hate to have to call back tomorrow :\. She also said that we wouldn't be getting an e-mail but would be getting a letter by regular mail... which kinda sucks.

I AM glad though, that they've started working on it. Now to be patient... I'm so sick of having to be patient...

Since receiving our approval email that notifies us that our application has been forwarded to Buffalo, we haven't received anything to confirm it's arrival in Buffalo. Is that normal? Our approval email was dated April 20,2011. Its been a week and I'm scared it's lost in the mail. It shouldn't take more than a week tops to mail from Canada to US. Should I be worried??

My ecas wasn't updated for about a week after approval. So my sponsorship approval letter was dated March 29. Buffalo updated ecas to say they received my application on April 7th. I don't think you need to worry yet.

Hey Marchers:

Congrats to everyone who's getting the news they wanted to hear! Just saw an article come across CanadaVisa's facebook page saying ouw there may be a need for workers in Alberta. Hopefully, this is good news for us since we're relocating to Calgary.

I'm debating to check our ecas to see what my status is in Buffalo, because I don't want to be a basketcase over this, but I'll report in if there's any news!

YAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

YAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

WOW!! Congratulations!!! Mine is still "pending" as of about 10 minutes ago when I spoke to the agent. He says I won't be able to see my e-cas until a decision has actually been made on the sponsor app...

I don't think being patient would be so difficult if I didn't have to be patient every single day about every single thing. I just want my husband here permanently... I want to share our life together under one roof... seems like such a simple concept that so many take for granted.

Guess it's another weekend of waiting for me.

 

[Stumpedmom]

I completely agree Jayde, it seems so simple but I do believe most agents if not all have NO clue what its like to be us waiting on our loved ones....my Ecas still says in process....will be thinking of you Jayde, and not to worry too much, enjoy your visit while he is here.....

Hello! Good news to report. We have finally recieved word by email that I have been approved as a sponsor. Now fingers crossed it goes smooth in Sydney!

 

[jayde]

Well we can finally log in to E-Cas and it says it's "In Process"... and when I click on it, it says:

We received your application to sponsor ******** on March 24, 2011.

We started processing your application on April 28, 2011

I know I shouldn't compare mine to everyone else's but... should I be concerned that they've been processing my app for two days and no answer about the sponsor approval? I am just worried that it means they're going to send the application back or that something is wrong.

OK All:

Checked Ecas and my sponsor's status is 'Decision Made" and My App status is "Unavailable" so I'm assuming that there's a delay because of the new computer system in Buffalo.
