Hey Canada1944,
don't worry about that. Believe me, nothing will change in the next couple of months, don't even hope for the miracle. Nobody among us, who submitted application this year received any good news from them. For example, my papers are in Vienna since April, and it still says only "in process". They update the page every 4-5 months.
And 12 months in the time in which they process 80% of cases. For some people, in can take even longer... I don't want to scare you, but you need to prepare yourself for at least 6 more months of waiting.

I would suggest to order GCMS note around the end of November to see what they are doing. It's easy to order it if your wife is in Canada she can order it on your behalf and she can receive it by the beginning or mid December.

The "in process" status apears on e-cas when they start processing your apllication. For example, we submitted the application in Mississauga Sep 28th, it was received in Vienna Nov 14th, and they started processing the application on January 18th. It was updated "in process" after Jan 18th.

That's kinda weird. Vienna received my apps in the middle of February but on E-cas it still doesn't say anything like "In Process". Just the basic:
1.We received your application for permanent residence on December 24, 2012.
2.Medical results have been received.

E-cas is not the one on what I count the most, I prefer when our lawyer calls us or send e-mail that we get any news. (Of course, we did not since Vienna received the apps) E-cas is just so... unpredictable. It stress me out when I check and since almost 1 year there is nothing new.

Btw, our lawyer sent them GCMS like 1,5 - 2 months ago... If I remember well the date.

I have seen on this forum that a lot of people do not get updated on ECAS and that it is notoriously unreliable. I have the same info on my ECAS as you do, and I have had PPR . I thought it would read "In Process" by now but it still shows the same as before. Some applicants have even had their COPR and still no change in ECAS, so don't get too stressed over ECAS being unchanged. Hang in there :)

As long as you have a document which states that you both live together in that place you're fine. Our landlord wrote a letter for us because the original rental agreement was just in the name of my boyfriend but on the condo contract there are both of our names on it because we bought it together.

Joint household expenses. Well... We bought a couch, a bed and much more months and months before we applied for PR. So we didn't keep any receipts at all (I don't like keeping invoices I don't need anymore and throw them out all the time :p) Never thought about it that I would need them one day...

It's not E-cas what stress me out, it's the inactivity of Vienna about my file. :) Just makes me feel like nobody cares about it, no news at all since February.
I thought that it's not only me who has the same case with E-cas. :)

But thank you, let's hope that soon everybody will be at the end of this waiting :)

Hey you guys. I hope everyone is doing all right. There is still no news from our side. I wish we could just like hibernate this winter. And just wake up like 2 days before our spouses get COPR. Wouldn't that be something no more worrying no more or being annoyed by Vienna. My daughter is learning new things everyday without me being there. :( it makes me wanna cry. I started this whole process almost a year ago.... which reminds me that my wife's medical expire on january 6th :(. Do any hungarians know any medical offices in the budapest area? And how much it costs over there. Because at first we did it in toronto. And if we should send the medical straight to vienna or missisauga again?

Anyways i hope someone gets their COPR before christmass to give everyone else some hope.

Cheers

Roland

Hi Roland,

don't do any medicals until Vienna tells you to do so! They might just extend the existing one. I did mine in January too, there is only one panel physician in Budapest, the whole thing costs 150 EUR, you can also pay in HUF. He forwarded the results to London and London sent them back to Vienna. If you end up having to redo it PM me and I will give you the contact details of the doctor.

Kitartás!

Sorry for confusing you all. Mine ECAS shows "Application received" as well. But when you click the link beneath to help you understand the status of application, then you can see with the information provided (1.We received your application on ... and 2.Medical results have been received), explanation is that it is "in process".

Hey JJ 22

When did you do your medical chek? i did mine 7 Feb 2013, and stil they dont show anything only that my application is recieved.

so when your application is recieved it means they are "In Process"? The doctor who did my medical chek he send the papers to vienna in Feb and i applied my application in april and they send me "your application is recieved in May 2013" why doesnt show E-cas that they recieved also my medical chek?

it makes me very frustrated i dont hear anything from them thats the hole stress that i dont hear anything from vienna
