You can use your online receipt number to log in with - along with details of the sponsor. Your info should show up once approved however this isn't always the case...
My sponsor was able to view our details on ecas 3 days after sponsorship approval, however I still can't log in using my details.

I'm still waiting for confirmation that mine has been received... perhaps I never will... it's a pain not knowing though...

I miss it! Ploughman's are my favourite. The food here was probably the hardest thing to adjust to. That and the french, can't forget the french!
Is your PP back yet?

Ahhh thanks both :)..I await with anticipation and hope that we get the fastest time for something as part of this process rather than the longest haha

On another note, contacted the relocation company in England who have had my house contents in storage since beginning of December to get that ball rolling for their journey over once my passport is back :)

Happy Monday everyone :)

Are they coming back that quickly??? I've got 6-8 weeks in my head, anything less than that is a bonus :)

Going to start working on my goods to follow list - isn't that difficult, have the full listing of everything in storage already completed by the relocation company :)

By now you have been trained in the ways of "waiting".
At this point all you need is the certificate that declares you are a fully qualified professional "Waitee".
The "Waitee" certificate manifests itself in the form of a PR visa, they stamp it in your passport.

FWIW Anyone who gets Canadian PR, qualifies as a "Waitee" - maybe is should be added to the NOC :)

I just received my PPR yesterday. :)

Phew...I am so relieved, I just found out last week that I am pregnant so it came through at the perfect time. I started to worry about the application even more.

Inl....I am so pleased your passport turned up, if anyone deserves quick processing at this stage then it would be you. ;)
