Mycic is down

[cyronn]

Still down. This is weird.

Still down. This is weird.

If a downtime such as this happened for a critical IT system in India (say for example Indian Railways ticketing app), the Railway Minister will be asked a question in Indian Parliament and he has to explain the reasons for it. Well, I hope some Canadian MP raises this issue in their parliament.

If a productive system is down for more than a few hours, I will expect disaster recovery to kick-in and alternate redundant servers to start operation to main service levels. From early morning EST till 2300 hours, it is nearly 18 hours of downtime for myCIC.

Some announcement or explanation is expected, and I hope happens.

It was a message from CIC requesting additional document for a temporary visiting visa. Was not related to the system itself. I kept trying and trying and was able to access my account once.

This down time is completely nuts.

With reference to unending technical problems being faced due to "my cic" and "ECAS Stattus check", I just started thinking, if all the applications being sent for approval to CIC are safe or not. I mean who knows, tommorow we come to know that data related to our ITA AND/OR our eAPR has been totally lost and we are left stranded at no man's land.

Is there any chance of such situation to arise?

If anyone got any idea about that?

Regards

There is always a back-up of data. I will be very very surprised if the data is not being duplicated in another server.

I got a mail today regarding a msg in CIC inbox. Unable to access it now. Hopefully it will be up soon

It doesn't matter which web browser you use. 100%
Problems are on CIC side.
