This was my email

"Have you receive my payment for right of permanent residence payment and my CSQ?

Thank you "

Their reply

"We have not yet received your CSQ.

Canadian Consulate General, Buffalo New York

I contacted Quebec immigration today, they said they forwarded it buffalo March 10th, 2011. I am on my way to fedex right now to expedite it to them and then will send an email again.

Yikes! I'm hoping this is just an isolated case - I just got an email saying that "no further action is required" but it doesn't specify if my meds or CSQ or anything else made it to them. According to MICC, my CSQ was forwarded on April 5th, but i don't know if that will show up on e-Cas or anything. So far my e-Cas still says nothing but "application received," though with the new file number I got today, I am now able to log onto it under my name, not just my husband's.

*deep breaths* Anyone gone through Québec who can tell us whether or not we receive any kind of confirmation that Buffalo has received our CSQ/Undertakings?

What email are you guys sending? I'm sure it's been listed in this thread, but a quick search didn't find what I was looking for, and with 300 pages, I figured it would just be easier to ask.

We're really hoping to get my PPR in the next 4 months, so I can have OHIP coverage by the time our baby is born next year.

Thanks!

I haven't had a chance to get on here in awhile but wanted to say so sorry about the loss of your father Boomerang, but glad to hear about your PPR!

Big congrats to Rinnerz after such a problematic and long process!

And also congrats to ocu_canadian and puzzle69 on your PPR!

We are waiting for my husband's passport to come back and I will still feel anxious until it is safely back and he has landed. We sent it UPS but it was the same day that Canada Post went back to work so I hope there is no problem. We were just nervous about sending it Canada Post on their first day back to work with all the backlog....though it would sure have been much cheaper!

Hubby had a job interview this past week and it went well so we are really hoping for an offer!

Destanova, is an email inquiry to Buffalo Office. Is very important to include your client number, the name of the principal applicant, Sponsor's Complete Name, Sponsor's DOB, Country of origin and your request or question. They replied me in 3 labor days with the information i requested.

Landed today via Peach Arch! Pretty smooth process through immigration.

We filled out the B4, B4a forms before we left home. Spent a hour down in Bellingham shopping and getting groceries then headed back to Canada.
Was glad to find out that the goods to follow have no deadline as we have no where to move his stuff to yet.

Goodluck to everyone, thanks for the support.

Buffalo received our passports today! Boomerang noted that Buffalo suggests including a USPS Express Mail return envelope with your passport submission. We did do this and it is probably a good idea for everyone else to do the same when they send off their passports. We received the tracking number for the return envelope so we can see when it gets shipped back (probably 3 weeks).

Looking at an October landing right now. Need to get the house sold and tie up various loose ends here in the States. Plus, we have a beautiful home to move into the beginning of November. Should be settled in Canada just in time for snow!! My wife dreads going back to the wintery weather, but I'm kind of looking forward to a big snowfall and a White Christmas for a change!

Hi Eddy070,

Didn't you already get a file number & In Process status in their reply to the inquiry you sent in June ? I have you listed as AOR & In Process already as per June 13.

I think the BXXXXXXXX is the paper file number, and the Fxxxxxx is the number on their system. Check you CAIPS, and you will see it.

Thanks

I got only the FXXXX not the BXXXX so not sure if its just the beginning to my case as others have got both F & B. Although the good news is that I can log into my E-cas with the FXXXX
