Hi guys

My file has been transfered to sydney this week from Mississauga.

Just wondering if anyone is also applying through sydney as i can see all other offices in forum but not sydney .

Does anyone know if sydney office is fast in processing applications or will take longer time ?


Thanks

I was wondering the same thing, am applying through Sydney, Aus also. I found this pretty helpful, who knows if it's actually correct though. (For some reason I can't post links here, so add www)

Yep we're going through Sydney - haven't reached the in-canada processing stage yet though, so who knows? Six months is the median time, ish, seems like forever!

Good luck everyone....

Did you receive a letter or email to let you know when things began to be processed? I sent my file over a month ago and still no notification that anything has even been received. I hope they have it! I have no client id #, so I guess I'll just keep waiting!

You can log on to Ecas with your receipt number, from when you paid your fees....
