hi everyone,

If you're concerned about processing times, it's worth adding your details to and using one of the various CEC trackers available:

There is also a thread specifically for October 2014 CEC applicants here:

From what I've seen 'IN PROCESS' means very little. I get the impression that Visa Officers use it inconsistently. For example, it took 6-7 months for my ECAS to update to this, yet my whole application only took 8 months.

In any case, the next step for you will most likely be the medical request.

Processing times can vary by a huge amount. No one here could accurately predict a better approximate time than 13 months.
