It's 2:30am, I checked my phone and I had an email notification to check my account. My heart almost skipped a beat, I called my husband immediately cause I was scared/nervous. They could be requesting an interview or more documentation or a ghost update. We got the pre arrival letter! I know it's not much but it gave my husband and I a little hope.

I feel for you. And you know, when I get an email from CIC, it drives me crazy the same way as you said. Can't breathe, can't even type my password and log in to my account I hope our day comes and I hope it comes soon...

Ok now I am worried again. I was reading the application details and under interview it says "Your interview was cancelled. Check your messages for details" Neither my husband or I received any request about going for an interview and there are no messages either. Could this cancelled interview jeopardize our application? It makes no sense cause I check the account daily and I have never seen anything.

Try live chat. I know it's not what you're asking for, but usually live chat is easy to get (no busy lines like with a phone) and friendly.

 

[AYA4887]

Would you look at that! Our ECAS account says "Decision Made"

Please tell me this is a good thing?

Yeah now she is trying to book online. Else she will try online chat tomorrow.

We have an update. Our MP called us tonight and got a new update on our case. Warsaw is deciding if my husband needs the authorization to return to Canada or not. ( If he does we just have to pay a fee) MP feels our case moving along now. Fingers crossed we will hear from Warsaw within the next 2 weeks. Contacting the MP does seem to help speed up our case each time. This is very motivating! I was feeling very hopeless today.

I'm sorry, what does this mean?

Warsaw is deciding if my husband needs the authorization to return to Canada or not.

Is your husband a sponsor or a PA in your application?

And also, does you MP call you without your request?

My MP called us since we were trying to reach her. I am the sponsor.

Sorry to hear that... Can you please give more details about your case? What red flags could they consider? Do you think your support documents were full and sufficient? Did you have an interview?

And now if you appeal, what timeline is it going to be?
