Hi! The exact same thing is happening to me.
No SA yet (52 days since application received and 11 days since AOR1...), however I get the same info as you in both the Sponsor and Sponsored columns of the ECAS: my application (sponsor) is in process but my partner's (sponsored) application AND his medical results have been received. So weird. ::)

I will call them next week and hope for the best! I hope we'll all get some good news soon.
Congrats to everyone who got SA or AOR this week!
Hey Charno and LMG,

Mine shows exactly the same.

I just gave them a call. The lady couldn't say much of course :mad:
She said since today's the 47th day since my application has been received, I should call back in another week given the long weekend that just passed; and that my application has been opened, just not processed yet.

Man, I really hope today would have been be the day.

Hi all,

Need your knowledge! :)

We've change residential address and wanting to update cic about it, just not very sure how to do it since we are not sure where our application package is right now. We just received aor1 last March 23, so I'm assuming it's still in mississauga and cic online instructions states to update local v.o. Does that mean we should just wait for our file to be transferred to local vo?
help please! Thanks a lot!

And yes! Keeping the faith to get SA soon :)

WHAT?!?!? I can not believe it :mad: ...anyway I would call again, some cic agents are really annoying.

We have the same timeline, so i am gonna call this afternoon. I will let you know if anything.

This is very frustrating.

Hi guys! I will also call them if I don't get anything today and report back.
This is so frustrating, we're the last ones within our timeline who are still waiting for SA. Let's hope we'll get it this week!

Hi! We all get the same info in our ECAS (no SA and still in process for the sponsor, and application + medicals received for the sponsored).

Why is it frustrating? Every case file is different and can take up more time depending on the agent processing it.

Today is the first day after the long weekend - have you considered that maybe there are still some agents who are away from their office?

If your timeline was past what is listed on the website for SA, then I would give them a call. Chances are, you're just going to be told the same thing, which is to wait until next week.

Please be patient. Everything will be settled in due time.

Hi! We're the last few ones within our timeline who are still waiting for SA, which is why we're getting a little antsy. ;) For example, I got my AOR1 14 days ago and still no SA, which is a lot longer than most february applicants. But like you said, I'm sure everything will be fine, we just need to be patient.

I got my SA a few days after my AOR1, but keep in mind that I also needed this to continue on with the Québec undertaking. There were a lot of things not included in my application that I sent to CIC, as Québec is the one who assesses my financial capability. So my application is less for the federal to process.

Small details like this can make a huge difference.

Charno and Idzawa,

I just saw that the processing time for SA has changed, and now it's 36 days.

I am calling CIC right now
