Dear Friends,

I have applied to CIO in April 2010, received first AOR in June 2010, Submitted full docs in October 2010 and got 2nd AOR in October 2010.

Initially my ecase status was "Received by VO", Then "In Process" Now in "Application Received". Anyone has idea why this has been changed from "In Process" to "Application Received"?

Thanks,
Aran

my Time lines are exactly same but the Visa ofc is london... and i got 2nd AOR in march 2011... process changed to InProcess and remains same since from last 3weeks. lets see what happens next ....

Hi All,
Need some guidance....
Is it possible to get an extension on submission of "Medicals and Passport"? If YES, then how many days of extension can be obtained? What are the steps to get the extension?

hi all, i was just going through op6 for FSW-1 - this shows that VOs must complete the paper review and make a decision regarding applicant's eligibiliti within in 2 weeks from 120 day deadline......does this mean anyone who did'nt had a DM made in eCAS within first few months should be alright in terms of points calculation and eligibility?? please comment

9.6. Distinction between final determination of eligibility for processing and processing
Final determination of eligibility for processing
All visa offices should use the same approach when making a final determination of eligibility.
Where documents are reliable and information is clear, consistent and well-supported the final
determination of eligibility can be made quickly. Where this is not the case, the final determination
of eligibility will be more involved.
While visa officers must exercise diligence at the final determination stage, they should also
complete this stage quickly, i.e. ideally less than two weeks after the deadline set by the CIO.
Exercising diligence while making a final determination within the ideal timeframe means the
determination will be a paper review of the application and supporting documents. Visa officers
must apply their local knowledge to the application and documents to determine eligibility.
The paper review is not just a confirmation of the preliminary determination made at the CIO. The
CIO makes preliminary determinations without the benefit of supporting documents to substantiate
an applicant‘s self-assessment of eligibility. The availability of documents permits a more robust
assessment at the visa office.
For SW1 (one or more of the 38 occupations listed in the MI), review the documents related to
work experience. These documents should include those listed in the Appendix A document
checklist of the visa office specific forms. They should include sufficient detail to support the claim
of at least one year of continuous work experience or equivalent paid work experience in one or
more of the occupations in the last 10 years. Documents lacking sufficient information about the
employer, or containing only vague descriptions of duties and periods of employment, should be
given less weight. Descriptions of duties taken verbatim from the NOC should be regarded as selfserving.
Presented with such documents, visa officers may question whether they accurately
describe an applicant‘s experience. A document that lacks sufficient detail to permit eventual
verification and a credible description of the applicant‘s experience is unlikely to satisfy an officer
of an applicant‘s eligibility.

What abt the NOC which is not in 29 list. I mean do they have any idea about the rest of 38 NOC ?

This is the biggest question we have now, i am also looking for any info on NOC which are not in the list.

 

[kavya]

This is the biggest question we have now, i am also looking for any info on NOC which are not in the list.

I have a logical reply for the same. However, I am not sure for it.
this cap limit was introduced last year after 26th June'2010. Now, our NOC are not in the list from July'2010. there were two things came into picture a) new limit for all (not for us) b) our NOC was gone.

So, When ever we will get visa it will be from old rule that means, Forexample, If they received around say 5000 application for 4131, They have to stemp all. So only matter is that we will have to wait for long. But we all will get visa stamp.

Does that make scanse?

Yes, I agree with your statement.

But we have to consider that CAP is for only Accepting the cases and not for the visas issued.

Once the case is accepted you are in and since we are already in with 2nd AOR also, we just need to wait when they are going to open our files.

Kaavya and OmSai, I agree with both of you..

I just want to see the pre june 26 applications picking up speed now..
