I understand there are two options available to check the application status:
i) through the official link https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/?app=ecas&lang=en and
ii) through the e-CAS tracker website https://ecas.carroll.org.uk/ (managed by Matthew)

Just wanted to know what is the difference between these two options? Which one is more reliable and updated?
 
the official link!
 
one is offical as u stated and is by CIC and the other one is by MattewC in which i hear once you sign up will check your status for you, iee, it will notify you if there has been changes on your application..

They both good and a alot of people have recommended E-cas tracker by MattewC. good guy i heard.

Go for both

There is no difference between the information available. The e-CAS tracker actually goes to the official site for you. The only difference is that on the official site, you have to log in yourself, every time. On the e-CAS tracker, you put in your info once, then it emails you if something changes. It's a very convenient time-saver, nothing more. It doesn't magically "know" any more than is on the official website.

Matthew,

Do I have to be able to log into the CIC e-cas before using your site? I tried to put my info so I will be e-mailed any changes but it says my receipt number had an error (and my receipt is like any receipt..starts w/ R and the numbers). I have not been able to log in on the CIC site yet since my app was received almost 1 month ago. I would love to use the site you created so I won't have to log everyday to see if anything has changed.

Thanks!!
