2 questions. CAPIS and additional documents

[thai/peg]

I was wondering if ECAS will let us know if they require anything else or if we will not know until we receive a letter in the mail. My husband's criminal record check expires dec 15, so if they need a new one will they call us, send us a letter or...
Our status on ECAS is "in process" under PRV status.
Also what are CAIPS notes?
Thanks!

You don't need to submit it until they request for a new one.
ECAS will never show such things.
Just wait to hear from them.
Good luck!!.

Hi,

Answer to your question " what is CAIPS"

CAIPS is a short form for - "Computer Assisted Immigration Processing System".

This is a computerized system which keeps track of each and every file submitted through the worldwide network of CIC offices. This system records every bit of information you provide. It is like an electronic identity; existence of the applicant.

This is very helpful when anything abnormal like - delay in reply, lack of updation, taking long time in processing happens! It is also helpful when you are selected for the interview. You can know the probable cause of interview requirement by obtaining the CAIPS notes.

In brief, CAIPS notes is an electronic record of your file and contents of the file.
