We received your application to sponsor HUSBAND on December 3, 2010 We started processing your application on January 7, 2011 We sent you a letter on January 17, 2011 about the decision on you application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us. We returned your application with a letter on January 17, 2011. You may re apply or resubmit your application when the information requested is provided. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us We got a letter on jan 17th approving me as a sponsor and haven't heard anything since. Got a email from ecas tracker with the update last night that our app was returned on the same date as sponsor approval???? What? We got no package from them why would they return it after approving me as a sponsor? We didn't leave anything out we were contacted early about additional fam info and faxed that in right away. I am freaking out. ------------- Outland Sent 11/30/2010 Received Miss 12/2/2010 Sponsor approved 01/17/2011 Received Buffalo 01/26/2011 Applied for VR extension 03/14/2011 extension approved until MAY 2013!!! 05/09/2011 |

Oh no  They must have messed up somehow (wouldn't be the first time...)Did you try calling the Hotline? Since this seems to be a Mississauga issue they should be able to give you information on it. ------------- Application received CIC Mississauga 10/11/09 Sponsor approved 10/12/07 Buffalo Processing 11/01/27 AOR 11/02/07 Initial assessment 11/03/16 PPR 11/04/13 |

They probably missplaced your fax and are returning the application requesting the document be included and then for you to return it.
Good luck.

Well I went thru the automater this time and it said our file has been transferred to buffallo so...I'm assuming they are extremely delayed in updating ecas and by "returned application" they were referring to when we had to fax the additional family info in.... I thought I had lucked out when a immigration officer called and gave me her fax #.....opinions? Think this could just be a delayed reference to that? Since the automater says our file not in canada anymore.... ------------- Outland Sent 11/30/2010 Received Miss 12/2/2010 Sponsor approved 01/17/2011 Received Buffalo 01/26/2011 Applied for VR extension 03/14/2011 extension approved until MAY 2013!!! 05/09/2011 |

Hm, in my opininion what you say seems likely.... Maybe try and send an e-mail to Buffalo then, explaining your situation. I know they are not great in responding to e-mails, but I think it's worth a try. ------------- Application received CIC Mississauga 10/11/09 Sponsor approved 10/12/07 Buffalo Processing 11/01/27 AOR 11/02/07 Initial assessment 11/03/16 PPR 11/04/13 |

No, don't bother trying to send an email to Buffalo. If the application has been transferred to them, you'll hear soon. They will immediately send out an Acknowledgment of Receipt letter to the applicant that includes the Buffalo file number. Without the file number, it won't do you any good to email them anyway.

I called again for HOURS the lady who finally answered said that the system was down and I would have to call back on Monday to see if it was back up. I asked if there were problems or anything with ecas updates and she said she couldn't say anything and I would just have to call back. Grrrrrr. ------------- Outland Sent 11/30/2010 Received Miss 12/2/2010 Sponsor approved 01/17/2011 Received Buffalo 01/26/2011 Applied for VR extension 03/14/2011 extension approved until MAY 2013!!! 05/09/2011 |
