Hello!

Quick inquiry! When I linked to MyCIC I see that I have a permanent application number, i.e. there is no "X" in front of it, I see in some other places people say that this doubles as AOR. Does anyone know if this is accurate? We have not yet received an AOR email.

Hi! I've been trying every day to link and was finally able to today! I put in my information (name and DOB) and then my city of birth and country of birth, and then where i intend to live in Canada. I put 2 as the number of people in application, and finally it worked!

Something to note is that they put my middle name as part of my first name, so maybe that could be your case too!

i dont know what ECAS is really, but just another way to track? I think it is w the sponsors info, not the applicants. https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do

no, unfortunately... neither ecas nor mycic. Will keep trying i guess.
Just curious, did you use the sponsor's details or the sponsored person's details?
Try with different combination.
Sponcered person (Principle applicant).

Here is the link for all the addresses, you'll want to use the one for courier services.

And for pictures, it depends on your region. See your region specific guide for instructions on photos.
