How many of you out there know of anyone who has went through the WHOLE process without so much as a letter, email, or update from the Visa Office you were dealing with???
 
Re: LANDED WITHOUT ANY UPDATE ON ECAS!!

I am asking because I want to hear that someone actually got through this process with zero updates on their s/o ecas on the sponorsed person side.


PS...Does ecas and can ecas update at any time of day??????

Is it a person who updates ecas like to update addresses???????
 
Hey Anada,

I don't know about Kingston, but from London VO ( "my" VO...) there is some stories of people getting through without hearing a word from the VO, and without ecas not updating - one day they just found the COPR at their door! but note that for visa-exempt nationals (which is the case of most applicants going through London), they are not required to submit the passport, the COPR is issued based on a copy of the passport added to the original application.

So yes - it's possible!

Ecas is updated in Canada, not by the VO, but I don't know where in Canada they are based - so it can seem that it is "anytime of the day" depending on where you are in the world... for your last question - well for your last question if it's a person who updates ecas, I suppose there is more than one, and I have no idea if they like their job!

good luck with your application,
Sweden

hmm so even after your file gets transferred to the destination VO for final processing, it is not them who updates ecas?? Hmm.
