Thanks, Bishop.
I don't mind the waiting hours....as long as their in flight services are good...
People, I checked my ecas today.....lol..(I guess everyone is asking who's this freak?....lol) and it showed "Decision Made".....It looked quite good in there....
I often wonder how long the ecas is going to be available after the PR process is complete.
Has anyone who's landed in Canada checked their ecas status afterwards? Just wondering......
i feel you bros.

Dear Tumaka,
I quite understand your perplexity. It is such a nerve wrecking situation to be waiting for an update that is long overdue. The PER to me, is the Duncan line in this process.....you hardly ever get refused after a PER.
However, it is very important to get things in perspective. Your PER will not come until after a positive eligibility REVIEW of your application. It is a process. And your application fee will not be cashed until after that process is complete.
The CIC reviews applications as they are received, and if yours got to them before the cap for your NOC has been filled, it will be reviewed before applications that got there after you. From your explanation, you met the cap.
There are only two possible situations. Either your file is still in queue for review by an Immigration officer in Sydney, or your application has been rejected, and sent back to you for whatever reason. Either way, you will not get an email and your application fee will not have been cashed.
We do not have a statistical database of applications to CIC, so, we will not be able to predict with specificity the average time between application and receiving PER, to see if you have exceeded the mean + 2SD.
You cannot send a case-specific inquiry yet, because you dont have your case number, receipt number or other identification numbers with CIC, all you can do is send a general email, someone has posted a mail address.
My advice: Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
1. Check your email regularly. Remove all filters from your mailbox, so that you do not miss any mail. Check your bulk, junk, spam folder everyday before you delete the mails there.
2. Check your regular mails as often as possible, make sure that the address you used on your application is easily accessible to you, so you can be sure that you don't miss any mail.
3. I am sure you have copies of your application. Go over them all over again. Look for any errors that you may have inadvertently overlooked. Try to look for loopholes in your dates, inconsistencies in your educational credentials. Look for any errors. Did you remember to sign and date the declarations?
4. Keep that previous application. God forbid, but you might need to resend it. Don't touch your POF until you receive the PER.
5. Be a good Nigerian!!!! Pray, pray and pray! You'll be surprised how well that works!
6. Get on with life here...there's so much to do while you're still waiting for that PER, and the distraction that worrying about PER will cause is often distressing.

We are all with you in this process, our prayers are with you, our thoughts are with you, and we will rejoice at the end, by the Special Grace of the Almighty God. Amin!
Ekundapsy,
This is a good one. Welldone.

As far as I know, a church marriage certificate is not a legally tenable document. Use you court certificate instead.

Hello nosike,
Authentic legal marriage certificate is the same all over the country, however, some churches issue Marriage certificate that is not authentic thereby misleading the couple that they are legally married in the face of the law. Be that as it may, some churches, however, are given the legal right to issue marriage certificates, same as the one that is issued by the local govt registry. The couple must have gone through the normal process of notification at the local govt registry. This takes about 21 days. Catholic churches and Anglican churches are some of the churches that issue authentic marriage certificate. To be on the safe side, compare your certificate to that of anybody that got his/hers from local govt registry. If its same you can use. Although it will likely be same considering your church.
Seniors can assist too pls.

Hi,
I plead to differ with your submission. All applications I had made to embassies for visa had always included my Nikkah (Islamic marriage) certificate as an evidence of my marriage status. And none has ever be turned down.

More so, for fsw application you will need to notaries all copies of documents you are putting in. This (notarization) by itself is a prove that whatever certificate that had passed through it is legally tenable within your country.

Others can contribute pls.

This is interesting to know. That's the beauty of a forum like this, no monopoly of experience, understanding or knowledge.
