Yes there's nothing written in front of them, just empty. I guess they keep the names secret?
I don't think it's a secret- they have codes for their names, so we wouldn't be able to identify them anyways, but they could tell who works on what between themselves.
Well, we are just learning what part of the system they are required to update and what parts aren't mandatory! Again from your file it's obvious someone *is* working on it. So they fact that there's no name there just shows they haven't updated that particular field.

I think you got your file right after the officer sent you the email asking for clarifications- hence the "Doc Requested" field- which BTW, I would expect to see in "Application Status" and "Reason for Status" fields. Oh well what do I know! I'm just an engineer, too much logic in my head! :D

Yes I have the exact same thing except that in front of LOCATION it says: DOX- Doc Requested
What does it mean?
Maybe it means that your paper file was put in a special area (DOX), waiting for documents to be received from you. I assume it is easier for them to proceed that way so they don't have to search for a file after they have requested more documents. Does this make sense?

Yeah it does make sense. I think that's what they do. I'm just curious when they give you a deadline to reply to their concerns, do they process your new information after the deadline? Like I've been given 60 days but I sent documents a week after their e-mail. I hope they review it ASAP instead of waiting for 60 days....

lol i was just thinking about the amount...400,000 toman is like $100-125 dollars for us depending on the day :-s so when they are reliable and fast it makes more sense to get them to get it for you then going yourself and spending so much money on the ticket, hotel, food etc :)
once again thanks kameila :)

they are making money out of the students coming over to study. they charge them 3x higher tuition compared to canadians, they bring in money to spend in the country etcc...good for economy..what they are forgetting is that most of these students come over here for the sake of pprs once they finish school and they never go home...it has become all about money and economy, nothing about family reunification has any value to the government...so sad how some ppl just get everything so easy while others suffer to the max.....gotta love this beautiful country
