Mine took 4 weeks from the change on eCas. It seems they issued the needed documents 3 weeks after making the decision, then took 10 days to send us the passports next day delivery. This was Beijing. good luck

Yes, that would be great. Thanks for your work on the site. I updated the profile, and predict landing around August 15th. Good luck.

Well, wrote this 6 hours ago. Just got a call from my wife saying the passports are safety back home, visas tucked happily inside. Does that put us at the "landed" category if we will not leave Beijing for 3 months more? But if so, then Quaking Aspen, please put us down. Now we must go through...

Dear All, What a strange trip it has been. I am happy to say I did get a message from the Canadian Embassy in Beijing saying my wife and step daughter have been approved. Funny thing it said "decision made" on eCas March 31st, and here we are, patiently waiting 4 more weeks and still no...

Hi QuakingAspen, and the rest of the "Club" Congratulations for your good news. For us, unfortunately, not yet the good news. I noticed you have us down as "Landed" but so far we have only the cryptic eCAS message 'decision made' that has been there between 1-2 weeks. No contact has been...

Dear all, Well, it is great to see the people via New Delhi getting their landing so quickly. I am uncertain of my status. Anyone with a comment what this might mean? Last week I checked eCAS it said: We started processing your application on February 8, 2011. Medical results have been...

Re: Thread for December 2010 Applicants - Hand delivery of passports I am impressed with the system. They asked in a form letter for the passports, preferably mailed. I am not far from the Beijing embassy. I would like to hand deliver. Unable to get a answer from a phone becuase unable to...

Yes it does say it is in queue for processing. No decision has been made. I guess it is like CharlieD10 says - they must just be requesting it early. Thanks to all for the replies

We submitted to Missisauga Dec 22nd. I heard nothing until yesterday Feb 8th, when my wife (applicant) got an email from the Beijing processing office requesting the passports for her and her/our daughter. My question to the forum - why so early in the process to ask for the passports? Is it...

Hello Everyone in December thread. After sending off my documents Dec 19th from Beijing, the computer has finally come to life with some acknowledgement of our application. My wife and daughter's application is now back in Beijing as of February 8th and they request their passports. Very...

Hi , I couriered my application in, arriving Dec 23rd 2010 as stated by the courier compnay. Using my receipt number etc I get no result as of Jan 13th. Just to clarify - does this mean I have to wait a month or so before they open the package and start plugging in data so I CAN get a result...

Thanks, just all I need.

Can anyone confirm if I am reading this correctly? I need to pay application fees for my wife and her daughter, it is clear. But her daughter is 14, a dependent child. Do I have to pay 490 right of permanent resdient fee for her? I will pay for my wife. I would really like to know, as I do...

Sorry if this is a repeat. I just want to doublecheck to be sure I am reading it right - I am applying for my wife, and her 14 year old daughter. Am I correct in thinking I do not have to pay the RIGHT OF PERMANENT RESIDENCE FEE for her daughter? That is the extra 490 (just for my wife?). I...

Great, practical advice. Thank you.
