Getting Nervous -- still haven't received my visa back nor has the return tracker been activated.

Atog: How long did it take for you to get yours back?

1 day... it arrived at his house 1 day after they sent it. but at his house, no one was home, so he just got the time to pick it up today...
hope yours will be activated soon!!

Sorry I meant how long from the time they received it til they chucked it back.
Mine was mailed on the 11th (a Friday), and they signed for it on the Monday (the 14th).

well so you guys may have an idea and be patient about it

We sent my wife passport by express mail March 5th, Buffalo received the Passport the 7th

The tracker of the express flat rate envelope we sent along activated the 18 and we receive the Passport with visa the 19

so if you remove the day of reception it took them 9 open days to process and send it back


so be patient a few more day will not kill you guys trust me i know plenty about wait

ours mailed on 9th, they received it on the 10th. then our return tracker was activated on the 18 and it's back on us on the 19th

I see on the Buffalo spreadsheet that some people checked the "APPLICANTS" ecas and saw an In Process. To date I have been logging in to ecas with my information (the sponsor). How can my wife check her ecas? We tried using the receipt number like I did but it didn't work. I guess basically I am wondering if there is somewhere they login or is it the information I can see when I click on application received?

1) You can see all the applicant's information from the sponsor's login anyway, by clicking on the applicant's PR application status.

2) To login to just the applicant's eCAS, you typically use their immigration file number and their personal details. You should have been given the Buffalo immigration file number when you received your AOR.

Just a thought. I don't know if it's this way for all applications but my (the applicants) Client ID number is one digit higher than the sponsors. The last number is one higher than my husbands.

It is not always the case.

hehe There are few "always the case" when it comes to CIC.

That is all part of the excitement, everything is just so RaNdOM!

Hi there! Could you please add me to the spreadsheet? My husband and I sent our app to Mississauga on March 22, and it arrived there this afternoon!!! Now all we have to do is wait. Hopefully it gets approved and sent off to Buffalo without a hitch.

Thanks!

This is like 10 blind men trying to describe an elephant by feel. I am just afraid of getting the messy end!

Please add me to the spread sheet if you don't mind!

thanks,
