Is she an 2012 applicant? I have seen due dates in 2013 for 2012 applicants, that may make sense. If she is from 2011 that could be a big worry.
That was a 2011 Applicant. I know its strange.
The friend in between, also has a strange situation. 15 months, no medical request yet! They even didint give any file number. she had to contact CIC to get one.

Puzzle...

Sorry I assumed she is a PNP applicant, do you know her category? Is she an Inland/Outland applicant?

I haven't read all the posts and don't know whats the conclusion drew in your case. First you can make sure the MP office doesn't mix up your case with someone else case. CIC use a different call back number to get back to MP office. Pls call CIC and tell them your situation and confirm the location of your file.
I will go to the MP's office as soon as they open by 9am local time. I need to confirm that the information I was given
was what CIC sent.
I have filled the GCMS forms and waiting for my spouse's authorization to get her information too. I will mail them before close of business today.

Thanks Guys

Why do you have to mail? Can't you e-mail them?

I called the MP's office today, and the man told me that he must have likely mixed up things.
That my file is in Ottawa, and that medicals would likely be asked for a redo.

Only thing I can glean from this is : Bring forward date = Oct. 4th, 2012

The rest info are not helpful and very confusing. My GCMS forms get to them today.

Please, who knows how to speak an agent through the cic call center? Or how to call Ottawa?

So the file is in right location ;D. Speak to an agent in CIC call center is very easy, most of them are girls with very sweet voice. But they can't give you much information, except your file location and status as stated in ECAS.

What was your status in E-cas?

Good for you. I told you not to worry. But re-doing the medical does not sound great. But at the very least you are much calmer now

Is 1-888-242-2100 the correct number to use? I have been trying this number, but No luck :(
