Why did you say we had to wait until 2021

 

[Rullence]

Because historically, it took 24 months before program support touched applications forwarded to them.

 

[Roxy0]

When is the email dated?

And u said u just received an email? Did u follow them up via the webform? Co-incidence?

 

[Roxy0]

I received the email today.. yes I did a follow up via web form a few weeks ago.

 

[Rullence]

If u want to know further about ur application, i suggest u request gcms notes. Thats how i knew that my application was sent to program support. In the notes section, they usually indicate the big question WHY it was sent to PSU.

I knew my application would be sent to program support unit because my dad's name wasn't on my birth certificate and it was resently added
