10-12 weeks seems to be the typical timeline before the first ecas update. I'd say wait a while and give them a call if you see nothing after 12 weeks.

Hello all, just thought of starting a thread for those individuals who have submitted their citizenship application during September 2013. I submitted mine with my wife and son on September 19. Let me know if someone else has also submitted during September 2013. Thanks....

I just got information from the cic call center that they are currently reviewing application received up to 10th September

Hi all!

I have sent application on 4 sept by recorded delivery
Was tracked & received 9 sept.
Got letter dated 11 Nov with book & client ID/receipt number. (Presume that AOR)
I tried since one week ago to access ECAS but no luck so probably not started processing yet :(

What happens next? Can application be returned @ this stage?
Does it transfer to my local Mississauga office (heard this office is quite quick @ processing)

Thanks I've applied for 1adult & 3 minors
