Dear Experts,
I applied with my common law partner for immigration to Canada in Sept
2001 via Buffalo. We finished our medicals in November 2002 and have
been awaiting news. We had applied as individual applicants but were
told that under the new rules we were going to be treated as 'family
class'.
I have regularly checked my E-client status and my name has never
shown up. My partner's has shown 'In process' for the better part of a
year. Today while checking my ECAS, my name appeared and it showed
that the application was WITHDRAWN. When i clicked on the word, it
told me that processing has started in November and that 'A DECISION
HAS BEEN MADE' and the CHC will contact me soon. My partner's E-client
status still shows 'In Process'.
My question is: I have never withdrawn my application so do you think
there is a misprint?
How could a decision be made if it is withdrawn?
Why does my partner's application still say 'In Process' since under
the new
rules my partner is the main applicant?

Mr. Miller has warned of the perils of taking the eclient system too
seriously but this is plain confusing. Any advice, ideas or
suggestions?

Thanks for your time.
