One of our group member reached out to ICAS yesterday and he got a standard reply stating they are currently at application received on 12th December.
However, when I contacted them last week they mentioned they are at 14th December. There is alot of descrepency in what they respond, every time someone reaches out to them.
It is also worth noting that they consider a different date for putting applications under review than what they mentioned on their timeline.
In my case, my application states that it has been queued up for review on 18th Jan 2019, however they are considering all my documents received on 18th December 2018 and will be processing it soon. I got to know about this ONLY after i contacted them for the status of my application.
If someone reaches out to them for status and have updates on date (that they arr processing), please do share on the forum too.
