Ha ha - may be they have a wii simulator that lets you practice before you touch the real equipment. Or even better, a remote control? ;)

LOL - but I foresee an logistic challenge. You would need 1 year of work-ex, and assuming you get that lined up Nov-9-2011, it is very unlikely that they will have a category listed that received '0' apps :)

Thanks SKA, am guessing that attaching a copy of my cc with sign/date might have just saved my day!

assuming they have a database of some sorts, something like select NOC, count(*) from fsw_applications_master where category = 1 and eligibility = 'complete' group by noc will get the job done :)

With the advent of latest frameworks, this should take few days to couple of weeks at the max to fix. I think they would be taking the 'help' of the 'big four' which while billing at exorbitant rates dole out crappy advice.

But let the 'date modified' at the bottom of the page to be Nov-2. Some sloppy joe at the wheel!

This does not make any sense. On Oct-29, 1122 was at 900, and Nov-1 (with no business day in between) is at 940 - 40 apps in one day, that is too good to be true! Two explanations I can think of are 1) Rate of inflow is higher now that more people are familiar, and have had the time to arrange...

While I agree and empathize, this is exactly what governments across the world offer as 'customer service' - they care two hoots about us. Stepping back, how on earth will apps be processed faster if it is all FIFO? As a comparative analogy - when US started a new labor process effective...

And re-printing forms guarantees that you always use the latest form.

you mean to say you had applied once in 2006, and once more couple of months back? If yes, what happened to the previous application? Good luck!

My CC was just charged !!! phew - App recd Oct-20, CC charged today. Very relieved man now! My letter explaining missing 'date' field on section-b is on its way, and will reach them on monday/tuesday.

Wow 1122's jumped by 120 in a week - the numbers dont add up - I think the theory proposed by Wayne must hold good i.e. these are as of late aug/early-sep numbers. Hopefully I get into the queue !

Atleast from what I read on IELTS instructions, replacements would NOT be given to us, it will be only directly sent to the receiving entity. So that rules out resubmitting the application. Stupidity of massive proportions. Am I missing something here? ***** from...

Thanks for the tip about marking "urgent open immly"

All, I am thinking of writing in a letter informing them of the missing 'date' in payment form before they get a chance to return it (recd. on Oct-20-10). Should I address the envelope to the exact same address? or should I remove the "Attn:SW1-NOC #1122" - so that they don't 'dock'/'hold' my...

Exactly that is what am trying to gauge as well - as to how they assess and what they have to state when returning applications. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks SKA, would you mind posting the wordings of the letter? And, was this missing date on payment form the only issue with your app?

Hopefully you dated the fee payment form for CC payment? Please see last two pages for the discussion surrounding the same.

Hi SKA, Can you please let me know how they had indicated that it was failure to date the payment form that caused the rejection? Also can you please indicate when you had sent the app/noc and when you got the returned package? thanks harvin
