congrats , I do have a question. are you been able to track your application before it started to be processing?
No, I gave it some times and because I didn't receive any AOR.
I asked questions on this portal and I was advised to check on ECAS with my UCI.

because it says Firstname/Surname that confuses me to be fair, do they need my first name only or my last name or just both!
my name is a bit complicated and someone told me that their system is very sensitive to names, so if you write your name let's say not all in caps it doesn't work or with no caps!
is that right?
If you are checking on ECAS your UCI number, last name alone ,then your date of birth and country if birth. It is advised that you write it the way it is on your decision letter.
If it is written in all caps, just write it in caps for them.

thank you for the replay, but let me just make sure of some information here, so when you checked the status for the first time, was the application in processing?
Or just received but no processing?
another question is let's say your name is John ST Rodriguez, note that John is your first name and Rodriguez is your last name (ST) is your middle name.
Do I write the whole name with spaces in between or only John Rodriguez to search for my file?
Once it has started processing you will be able to see on ECAS, then you can link to your gckey but if you cannot then the processing has not started.
Also for the name ,if they ask for last name. Just put only Rodriguez, if it is first name, put only John

Firstname or Surname. I will advise you put your Surname instead of first name

No 7. Is not IRCC update. It was the day we completed the medical that IRCC asked for in No. 6. Update no. 8 is my record of the email sent to me by IRCC. It didn’t appear in my eCAS. The only updates on my eCAS are 1, 2, 3, 6 and

You entered Canada at the Etobicoke IRCC office on June 14, 2022 and became a Permanent Resident.
Gotcha, thank you

yes so it’s temporary, you will either need to wait for the official number or try removing the X and thats your offical number

if you don’t get official number in few months then try checking it by removing the x

That is what happened to me. Never received G application number, just removed X and moved on with linking.

My medical passed May 27. Many people received ECoPR after 1 to 4 days. Nothing for me yet. I am a May 2021 applicant.
