Thans for your reply. Your background check took a long time. What the hell are they doing?

You guess why they required you did the interview and checked your background. Which country are you from?

Hello all,

I am a May 2010 applicant, Buffalo VO. I changed my mailing address. When I was sending my full documents to the VO, I mentioned this change in a cover letter.
Now, my application is in process but the address is still my previous address.

Should I change it online?

Thanks

Hi Mask2005,

You can call CIC 1-888-242‑2100. They could change the address for you. Good luck with your application!

Hi,

For applications in Buffalo, CIC call center can not make changes, they can only view changes made by BVO. To make changes, you can either send CSE or email or fax. In my case, I did all 3, and got response from BVO in 24hrs, but ecas took some time to update.

Regards,
Shiv

Hi Shiv,

I saw someone on the other forum said CIC can only change application address (outside Canada) for Buffalo. And I did call them and the guy changed it for me. Of course, if you can get in touch with them by all means, that would be great! :)

Thanks nm423 and avarava23. From what I have seen so far, once they add the line "We have reviewed your application and started processing on " usually you shall get some document request or medical request.
