Actually I tried, at the end it asks for APPLICATION NUMBER !!!! and does not go through without it..mandatory field to fill. with no app number at hand I filled a dummy file number. Then an ack email came with a TEMP registation number for GCMS request ( not for app )..in the ack email it mentioned once requests starts to process, in ONE business day a new registration number will be sent...which has not come despite many days has passed. Now lets see what comes out after one month. I dont think anything will come. When they decide to remain silent, they remain silent. And there is always a legal loophole to be used for remaining silent.
One thing I dont get is that what harm is there for them to be more transparent about what is happening...they could simply say there is a backlog and this is the way we handle TR to PR apps...there are batches..or whatsoever...and we estimate with no obligation to start your app in X months..like this we cant plan anything in life..they should note that we might need to travel home to do things...I have some legal affairs to address back home and with this status I am not sure when and if I should leave..I worry I leave and they approve my app all of a sudden and I wont have time to get back in time...on the other hand I cant neglect things back home any longer...this is really messing lives up.
