Dear all,

Has anyone ever changed your address on eCas for your citizenship application? I changed my address on Nov.30. Up to date, 16 days have passed but my eCas stil shows my old address. I'm going back to my home country next week. The CIC's website says it takes 15 days for your new address to show on eCase. But.... Could you please share your experience in this regards? Thank you in advance.

Hi,

If you do a search on this forum you'll find many posts suggesting that the online system is not reliable when it comes to update the address.
In fact I read recently that someone had to call CIC 3 months after making the change online to make it effective. The agent told him that nothing changed in the system prior to his call.
So yes call CIC to make sure the address change is taken into consideration.
