Did any of the June applicants get the file number as yet from CHC Islamabad???

Nope, I dont think so. If you check the June spreadsheet created by MDSB right here https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&hl=en_US&key=0AqGLhMqzZEMHdG5yX1JSeDdaT05FWnllRnNwSWpGamc&output=html, you will notice that there are only two other applicants from CHC-Islamabad who havent even recieved their sponsorship approvals yet.

Wish all you guys a speedy processing. I feel the CHC-Islamabad applicants have a rough road ahead what with 24 months of waiting. My heart goes out to all of you....wish you guys get it a lot sooner than that!

Yep, exactly, after which the file is transferred to the respective Visa Office, Islamabad in your case.

Also, its too early for you to get a file number. Maybe you can wait 2 more weeks and then email them asking for your file number. Earlier, they used to send out Acknowledgement of Reciept (AOR) letters which contained the FIle Numbers, but have stopped doing so since Oct 2010. Hence, you will have to write to them asking for the File Number. Hope this helps :)

thank you so much for your help :) i really appreciate it. my application has been approved and has been sent to Islamabad in July but i haven't received anything from Islamabad as yet :(
 
Hi pooh123,
When did u send ur application to Mississauga and when did you get approved?
 
the application was sent on June 1, 2011 and it was approved on July 5, 2011 and was sent to islamabad. but since then i haven't heard anything from islamabad. :'(
 
You need to wait for some more time and email them asking for your file number.
CHC-Islamabad is one of the slowest Visa Offices with 24 months. Inshallah your application will be processed faster than that, but you need to be realistic about it. Wish you a speedy processing :)

I know this isnt much consolation, but if you ever need any help or just want to vent it all out, this is the best place to do it. Most of us are in the same boat and the best we could do is offer each other help and support. Inshallah you will be through before you know it :)

Received another eCAS update today

Medical results have been received.


Let's hope next weeks brings some good news for the early June applicants!

I can finally access e-cas!

Says the file was transferred to the visa office on July 25th and that they commenced processing on August 11th. Last update is that medicals have been received (from Friday I think).

Hi Andeng! I experience the same. Although its been just 5 days (if im not mistaken) since we received an email from CIC-M, I still cant access ecas. I guess we just have to wait again. :) Have you tried using the ecas tracker? https://ecas.carroll.org.uk/
