Hello Nenuinthey

I understand how you feel and many of us on this team will agree with me !!

Do this real slow :

Login into ecas with the Receipt number of the online payment, or by using the UCI number of the landed person (you or your spouse) ..... Remember to put the hyphen between the first four digits.

Hope this work - keep us posted and good luck
Thank you so so much Needhimback...YES..it worked for me(use hyphen in between client number)....:) ..now I see ecase update with status as application In Progress.....

Below are the details....

We received your application to sponsor XXXXXXXX on October 26, 2015.
We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on December 12, 2015.
We started processing your application on December 11, 2015.

But so far I didn't receive any AOR/SA e-mail....I think it might trigger later time....

Could you please clarify that, will I get another mail and status changed to different once they transfer the application to local embassy(country specific)? also in the e-case they mention that file transferred to local embassy?

Also somebody please update my details as well in the tracker for the help of somebody to track......
Appreciate your help..... :)

Hi, i Think you should expect you SA Letter in the first week of January, and here i leave a
very good Information that i found about the OLD AND NEW In Process, hope is helpfull to you.

Good Day Folks,

I am starting this thread just to bring more light between the OLD IN PROCESS and the NEW IN PROCESS on Ecas.


APPLICATION RECEIVED:

This status on Ecas used to appear when the VO was checking the application fees were paid, All sponsorship forms were dated and signed, all the supporting documents were present ( If not, they could request any missing document) at this stage they used to check the qualitative of your file. Usually the Officer who received people's files when they came fresh from CPC Ontario will do everything we just mentioned above and put a 3 months BFD on your file to be reviewed by another officer and placed it in a queue, Then send AOR2. some VO did not even send AOR2. After 3 months an officer will open your file again and begin to do some work, your ecas still showing APPLICTION RECEIVED. The first thing that officer will do is to work on Eligibility between the SPONSOR and PA. The officer will pay close attention on age differences, religious background if the relationship is ongoing, no red flag, or fake documentation, the officer will check if the quantitative and qualitative of docs you sent. If you happened to order your GCMS at this point you will see ELIGIBILITY: IN PROGRESS, and Ecas would displayed

We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000

Even if medicals were done at this point, lots of people's applications back then did not displayed Medical Received at this stage on Ecas. when the officer approved your Eligibility at this point, your Ecas would show IN PROCESS and if your were to order your GCMS Notes would then show ELIGIBILITY: PASS. It is a sign that there would not be an interview. the case was not over yet.

IN PROCESS: We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000
We started processing JON DOE'S Permanent Residence Application on 01.03.2000

At this point the officer will request SECURITY checks and CRIMINALITY checks to other government offices who are responsible to do so. at this point no matter how long your file would take it was not the VO's fault neither yours but CSIS. Just to add flesh to the bone, let's say you requested your GCMS 4 months after your application went IN PROCESS, you might see at any page pertaining to SECURITY/CRIMINALITY would have S.15 (1) or S.19 (1) on the right top corner. Sometimes CRIMINALITY Checks may come back quickly and the officer would updated your file and keep waiting for Security.Then your GCMS will show.

Eligibility: Pass
Criminality: Pass
Medicals : Pass

Sometimes they may hid Security Checks even if it is finished according to Subscription 15 (1) for international affaires and defense. If the RPRF is not paid and the officer did not want to extend your Medicals if they were expired, he/she will issue a request for those document, even PPR. Some people reported seeing on GCMS Notes

Eligibility: Pass
Criminality: Pass
Security : Pass
Medical : In progress or Pass

DECISION MADE:We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000
We started processing JON DOE'S Permanent Residence Application on 01.03.2000
Medical Results have been received
Decision has been made on your application and the office will contact you in writing about this decision

At this point when Ecas displayed Medical results have been received which was the 3rd line, any applicants used to know that their application were almost done.

Back then Decision made without re- medical, Medical request or PPR was a sign of rejection and a good number of people used to know that their applications were rejected until they received their decision made letters to be double sure. Things have changed so much and will keep changing.

The NEW IN PROCESS has replaced the old status called APPLICATION RECEIEVED if it says:

IN PROCESS: We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000
Medical Results have been received

This way you are not off of the interview's hook yet, they just update your Ecas with those 2 lines they will only show the date they started processing your file when Eligibility passes and background checks have then begun. You will mostly likely see the third line after months and months when your file has matured for PPR and ready for a decision. Hopefully this helped

Warm Regards and good luck

I am oct 26 applicant and I have received my SA just this morning. According to your ecas info...my info is also exactly like you both for me and my wife who is the sponsored person. So it looks fine for me seeing at your ecas info....they wouldn't have in process your spouse had you have some problem...just wait today or a couple of days if not call CIC early in the morning after 8 15 AM for example...the wait time would be 1 min in some cases. Good luck! God bless.

Hello and welcome

Honestly I think you are fine. Once it states on both ends that files are in process that's a real good sign my friend

Not everyone receives AOR and SA, so at this point i wouldn't even worry about

The fact is your file is on its way (three lines is what you want to see) !!!

Hope that helps and congrats !!!
I'm worry a bit probably for nothing lol, I saw a lot of people saying they have 3 lines on Ecas for sponsor but I got only 2 but i got my SA email??
Is it something about CSQ being approuved before having the third line?

thx

Shineon39, Once you received. SA approval you need not to worry about 1 2 or 3 lines , remember CIC doesn't always update - there's no consistently with them. Yes three lines is what you want to see but you already got SA

Your file is already transferred - sit put my friend as you go through the immigration journey !!

Congrats !!!
