I submitted mine on the same date. Still no reply either to emails or phone calls. I have to be in Vancouver for an important conference March 17. At least if they let me know they are not going to send it back within that time, I can cancel flights, hotels etc and inform the organisers. My friend who is going to the same conference applied last week with a private agency and got his visa in five days. I feel so frustrated. My passport is stuck with these guys in Seattle and I cant even use other agencies. There should be some way to know the status. They should have a tracking system or a current timeline for processing instead of an arbitrary '30 days'. Please let me know if you get some information. Thanks!

Have you tried calling or going to the office in person? Below is the info on the Seattle office.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions/seattle.asp

If you go to "case specific Enquiry" link, it says there is a "Client Application tracking status" system. It also says...

"We will not respond to your enquiry if the application is within normal processing times" It has not been 30 days, so that is probably why they have not responded.
