just for your information for those that are checking ecas. I am the designated representative and sponsor for our application. If I log in with my uci on the applicant side I see three lines. If I log in with the PA's uci I see four lines. If any of you that are looking for missing lines have not tried that give it a go.

Hi,
Mine is still showing two lines. And it is not sbowing " medical received" that worries me a bit

My husbands didn't show up until after they requested the RPRF. Don't worry, ECAs isn't updated in real time.

Very true. My COPR is dated the day before I saw DM on eCAS.

Congratulations by the way!

Congrats . My application was received on April 20 th, 2016 didnt receive any SA email or letter but file is already transferred as of June 15,2016 to LVO.

Hey jamils how do you know your file has been transferred to visa office.?

I have a thought - will it be slower if I do NOT have to update any document?

Before sending out my application kit, I read the AOR2 mail from other forumites and prepare the most complete documents. Therefore, I already gave them my personal history from 18 years old (HKVO special request, they need our history from 18, not recent 10 years. This is most likely the form everyone needs to update).

However, on the AOR2 letter it says:

The above documents must be received in our office within 30 days from the date of this letter. If you fail to comply with this requirement, a decision concerning your application will be made based upon the information already submitted with this application. This may result in the refusal of your application.

They'll wait 30 days. If no updated doc received, they will process based on current doc.

Okay, let's consider these scenarios:

1. PA gets AOR2 mail and updates the docs. The docs arrive HKVO in a week.
1-a A hardworking VO receives the updated docs and starts processing immediately. The process only delays 1 week.
1-b A SOP VO checks the docs after 30 days. VO finds out the updated docs and starts processing. The process delays 30 days.

2. PA gets AOR2 mail and finds out there is nothing to update (like me).
2-a Whether the hardworking VO or SOP VO has to wait 30 days and they realize I have nothing to update. The process delays 30 days.

I don't know if this is correct, but I think people who update their documents are likely to get processed faster.

Please correct or share your thought.

So the question is - should I send a letter to HKVO telling them "I have nothing to update"?

 

[naticom]

So you did not pay RPRF along with the app kit?

Just checked ECAs and found decision made!!!!!!!!

Applied April 7, SA Approval May 27, file transfered May 31 to Ottawa, RPRF request June 7.

It was so fast!

To which address did you send your RPRF receipt?

 

[Decoy24601]

To which address did you send your RPRF receipt?

Send it via Case Specific Enquiry: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx It's not necessary to mail a physical copy. I sent mine before they requested it this way.

Hey jamils how do you know your file has been transferred to visa office.?

Hi Crezana I did not receive any sponsor approval email or letter but i called last week and they told me you have been approved as a sponsor and your filled is been transferred to London Visa office . And on PA side it shows we started processing your application on June 16,2016 . I dont know how much time will it take from there so far everything is fast.

Was there any document request in your AOR2?

I didnt have to update anything as well, my VO didn't send me AOR2 either. i never got any Document Request. Just PPR.

But anyways, that clause in AOR2 is always there , even if there is no document request in AOR email.

Don't worry, either u have to update or not, your application goes in queue when it gets to the VO. So either way , the application will only be reviewed as the queue goes on or on its Due date, which ever comes first.
