What to expect?

[CANUSA31]

Hi everyone, maybe someone who has done this process before can help me out (and others in the future).

My common-law application was received in Vegreville today at 7am. What can I expect now?

AOR, then AIP (if successful) then what?

Also I've read before about something called Ecas? Not sure what this is or how to log in.

Anything else I/we can expect while waiting during this process?

Learn how to "wait"!

This is the link for ECAS (electronic client application status):
https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do?app=ecas
- at least I assume that's what the "e" is for;

You won't be able to login however until you have been issued a UCI. Even if the applicant has one, the sponsor probably does not (as in our case) and as such we could not log-in until that first AOR was issued to us.
