Dear all,
I am new to here, well, new registered but was here before. Here is my story. I sent the application forms by post on June 25,2010, and received the whole package return on July 26, since I didn't know they would change the rule the other day, I didn't send in all the required doc. By the way, it was accepted by the office on July 19th and the package was returend on July 21st. So I assume that the office will make the initial review within the fist few days of receival of the application.
I sent my second one on Aug 11th, and it was received by Miller on Aug 16th. Upto now I haven't heard anything back yet.
Sent application on: 11th August 2010
Received by CIO: 16th Augest 2010
NOC: 1122
VO: Buffalo, USA
