Applicant and Sponsor have two different UCI numbers, so that might be your first issue. Try logging in as the sponsor with your file number instead of your UCI number. If you don't have a file number yet then you'll just have to sit tight!

You should be hearing pretty well any day - go by the "processing applications on x date" instead of the number of days, it tends to be more accurate. Your application was received 24-Oct, and they are processing apps received on 27-Oct, so you should have heard ideally. Wait to hear back from them since you've already chased. Not everyone gets AOR, so often they can't check ECAS until sponsor approval comes in anyway! Fingers crossed!

A new entry to the spreadsheet for me please. We posted the package from Leeds, UK on 05/01/2015 and according to Royal Mail it was delivered on 12/01/2015.

We haven't heard anything yet, e-mail or otherwise, but I suppose we'll have to get used to waiting and sitting on our hands for the time being!

According to my bank the payment came from 'CITIZENSHIP & IMM ON-L OTTAWA'. Does anyone know if all reimbursements come Ottawa or dare I make the gigantic leap and conclude my application is being process there? I haven't received any communication from them about it.

-Date application received in Mississauga - 2015-01-12
-Whether you applied as Married or Common-Law - Common-Law
-Date of sponsor approval - Not yet approved
-Which office is processing Phase 2 of your application (will say on your sponsor approval letter/email) - We requested London, but have no conformation as yet
-Date(s) of any other requests you've had - None
-Whether or not the principal applicant is non-visa exempt - I'm a UK citizen so would need a visa to enter Canada
-Current location of the principal applicant- closest major city is fine if you don't want to be too specific! - Leeds UK


Thanks,
Andrew

Is there a communication expected from CIC before we find out if Anna (my sponsor) is eligible or not?

Can you check ECAS at all? Normally if you can check ECAS it means you have sponsor approval. ECAS does not tell you which visa office has your application though.

If I applied in August should they have not contacted me somehow by now?
