Mycic is down

[vvarma]

Very interesting. What happened next?

Well...CIC is least bothered about my expired ITA which was all due to their fault. They simply do not reply to any CSEs...

All CIC online services looks like down. Ontario Web site ,CSE, GCMS, MYCIC and ECAS. I am not sure what is happening with CIC software.

Down down down. I hope there aren't folks with deadlines to meet or if so, CIC will extend such deadlines. Best wishes to all.

From my personal ongoing experience and few other mates, CIC is NOT extending any deadlines. Once you hit your deadline - its over...you need to start all over again. Not trying to scare anyone - this is the harsh truth.

That's why you submit whatever CIC asks, ASAP, not a day later.

Totally agree on your point and I hope all the readers take it seriously. ASAP is the word!
In my case, I never got the opportunity to submit the application, since they were not able to resolve a technical glitch for more than 2 months. By the time the glitch got resolved, my profile and ITA expired due to 60 day limit. Now CIC is not willing to help at all

Some kind of cyber attack? It is a possibility and govts will never admit that something like this happened unless there is any data loss.

what the hack is this. We can't do anything on CIC as system is still down for Express Entry process . CIC people really want to do something for this.

 

[prishah]

I also did call to CIC , they already set automatic system msg : Our online services are down. Please try again later. Thank you for your patience.
Really these people pay more attention on this :-[ :-[

I am suspecting it's a cyber attack. The system has been down for too long. Hopefully no serious damage resulted or any major information loss.

What's the point in attacking CIC online services?

 

[cseeker]

All this while CIC's twitter feed is full of arrangements that they have made for arrival of refugees! May be they deliberately shut down the access to their systems to process a batch of refugees who are going to come shortly.

 

[prishah]

True that I have also seen their posts too on twitter. Probably they deliberately shutting down but not sure could be another reason I believe. Only they know :

I don't know if they are under an attack or not. But I suspect that if they are, it's probably from a group of people who are not agreeing with the Syrian refugees coming into Canada.

@anarsoul: You are right

Guys don't start a discussion now without knowing the facts. This is highly unlikely chance of a Cyber Attack.
