Thanks for informing Saathi. Couple of questions: Where did you apply (if online, which website) and how much does it cost?

Do update or PM once you get the CAIPS report since you will get more information. What is the current eClient status for you though?

Thanks for sharing this CAIPS info & post when you get the report. I think since there are more dependents in your file, your case is taking a bit longer. Am sure you will get the medical call soon for your parents.
