Pradeep,
I asked about two things at three different times.
1st instance was in december 2010 about adding my spouse in my application because i called call center about the files that i have to sent after getting married. I got married in october when my application was pending in CIO sydney. Once i got back to Canada, i sent the initial details to CIO sydney but I did't send the passport copy and PCC of my spouse, but by the time on Nov 29 I got PER. so i made a case specific enquiry to buffalo. but they gave me a weird reply asking me to send the details to CIO Sydney, then i asked specifically replying to the email...... a clarification stating that i got PER and in that letter CIO askerd me to contact VO Buffalo for all further enquiries. Oh the reply was a relief with all details... asking me to send lots of documents and photos of my spouse.
2nd instance was in march when my ECAS changed to medical received i contacted VO buffalo by email notifying them atht i did not do the medical yet... My application was received by CIO on Aug 6, 2010 and I received positive reply on Nov 29, 2010. They said it is transferred to Buffalo... after buggging a lot with VO, Buffalo I got a reply saying that it will take a minimum of 30 weeks to create my file in Buffalo.!!!
3rd instance was when I couldn't acces my ecas. i emailed to technical department and it was back in service by four days..
is it this enough buddy? i think i better not to disturb this guys a lot

;D
