Hi,

I also filed mines on Aug 25th, have you herd anything from them yet?

No word yet. Looking like some of us are on the back burner. Hoping to here something by tomorrow or next week. If not next week then I will start pushing to try contact someone.
 
I just called CIC. I mailed out my application Aug 11, and got the request to update form Sep 4. I sent out the new form Sep 11, and nothing from then on. Today they told me, they updated my file on Oct 9, so l need to wait another month to get SA. That's what they told me. Really?? Are they kidding me ?? 100 days to get SA??
 
I called CIC again to ask a confirm when they received my updated form. However, this time they told me there is nothing in the system yet, they can't find anything...Are they responding people with lies? OMG they got me crazy.
 
When my husband tried to call CIC they asked for an application #, we dont have a number yet thats why were calling! Im thinking there may have been an overload of August applications and thats why were seeing the slow down...
 
Anyone updated the new form by email or fax? I'm wondering how long CIC will receive these forms from emails and fax and enter it into the system?

The immigration agent who helped me with my case told me he mailed it to CIC on Sept 11, but the CIC told me they updated the form on Oct 9. Is that normal or someone was lying? It shouldn't take that long to update my file (based on the information on the Aug spreadsheet). I know a friend of mine send his updated form on Sept 12, and CIC told him his file was updated on Sept 15. Is it I just got a bad luck or the delay is from my agent? Anyone can give me any idea? Thanks a lot!

I was also asked for a receipt number, it's there way of verifying. Offer your receipt number next time.

Just provide them your client id, that will work. If you are talking about the automated phone menu, just enter the client id. We want to transfer to the agent anyway.

Congrats! :)
Did you send the new forms in ur whole Application?


Yes, I called them in July and they suggested I submit with the new forms. I had all my forms done, had to re-do everything and had my hubbie send them to me and then submitted everything with the new forms in August.

The medical results are usually transmitted electronically now and your application has the electronic link to those results. Presumably this is good news in that they were able to match the files.

What does your ECAS status state? Application received or in process?

You would only have this if you have gotten some sort of visa before. It's a UCI number (unique client identifier). If not then you won't be able to check until you hear and you will get a UCI and file number at that time.

I believe that due to the fact that they want the original signatures, the forms can not be send via fax or email.

Did you get through to someone by offering that? I was looking at your timeline, did you apply in September and have received SA? If so, that defiantly makes me jealous, lol.

No SA here. Wish I had though. I feel like its the day after Thanksgiving... everyday!! Like standing at the Wal~Mart door waiting for it to open so I can get the Black Friday (SA) special before anyone else. :) ROFLMFAO
