Ecas is the online site where you will see the status of your application. You put in your client number and your birth date etc then you will see if your application is IN Process or DM- Decision Made. After medical you wait for whatever the embassy will require. For us my parents went for medicals Aug 2012 and they just got their visas Dec 5 2012. Goodluck!placid said:Pardon my ignorance but what does DM, E-CAS stands for ? Sori ha......senior na ako. We are being sponsored by our daughter. Tapos na kami mag medical. Our medical was submitted to the embassy only a month ago. How long pa kaya kami mag hi hintay for the next step ( whatever it is) ?
