A6: When trying to retrieve information about a sponsorship application, it is important to make sure that all the fields in CAS contain information about the sponsor. For example, to see the status of a sponsorship application sent to the case processing centre in Mississauga, you must use the sponsor's identification number (example: client #, receipt no, etc), along with the sponsor's name, date of birth and country of birth. To see the status of the sponsored individual's application for permanent residence being processed, you must use the sponsored individual's identification number (example: client no, receipt no, etc), as well as his/her name, date of birth and country of birth.

I wish I had managed to save something I read before in FAQ but it gave the definitions of what the status updates are for the sponsored individuals application.

Castro, correct me if I'm wrong but using the B File number can you not see more info (or details) than you can using your client id??

Well anytime I have used my husbands B client number, I don't see anymore info, then if I use my client number I was given.
