E-cas is there to create the illusion that they are providing you with information. In my experience, the only way to know what is happening with your application is to request your electronic case notes via the ATIP process.
Completely agree with this.

Yes one can know the status of their application using GCMS/ATIP notes as most of the time E-CAS status changes directly from Application Received to Decision Made.

Are you asking that someone writes a letter for you to CIC to allow you to be present for the birth of your child?

You would do better asking in the International Students section. This is for sponsoring your spouse for PR.

Easiest way is for you to get an OWP. Refer to threads in the students section for more information.

hey all..

I am the Principal Applicant, and my husband is sponsoring. I have an Indian Passport and in my passport, my full name is written in the "Given name" column and the "Surname" column is left blank.

Example:

SURNAME -
GIVEN NAME - Anjali Sharma

Now after I filled an application form, its not allowing me to validate the form as my Surname column is blank and I need to fill my name (exactly as on passport),
What should I do to solve this problem ??

Did any one of you have this problem, if yes,, what did u do ?

Plzz help :eek:

I have no experience with this, but you could Write Not Applicable? and send a copy of your passport where your full name shows and you could also write a letter expaining why the surname is blank (not applicable) Do you actually have no last name or Sharma is your last name? Is the surname written on the Given Name part for all Indian passports or is there a mistake in your passport?

I just looked at the ATIP webpage and unless I have my husband's written consent, I cannot make inquiries on his behalf. Because he is not a Canadian citizen (as yet), he cannot access ATIP. So how do we get these notes? He is in Nigeria so he would have find the form, sign it, scan it and email it to me. Am I correct?

Peach Nibbler

Proof that you have the right to make a request:
Proof may include a copy of your Canadian passport, your permanent resident card, or an official document that demonstrates you are currently living in Canada (i.e. driver’s license, bill with proof of address, or work, study and/or visitor permit).
If you have a mailing address in Canada, you will NOT be required to provide proof.

Consent, if applicable:
If you are making a request on behalf of someone else, you must include consent to release their information. The consent must be signed and dated by the person authorizing the disclosure of his/her information.
It is also recommended that you include a consent for each individual listed in your file over the age of 18.
If submitting your request to CIC, please use the Consent for an Access to Information and Personal Information Request form (IMM 5744).

Credit card, if your request is being made under the Access to Information Act:
There is a $5.00 application fee for these requests. (There are no fees under the Privacy Act).
At the end of the application, you will be automatically directed to an e-Payment tool, where you will be required to pay your $5.00 application fee using a Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or prepaid credit card.
