My app receive date is 10-Dec NOC 2172. Mode of payment is DD via Citi Bank India
I had raised a query with them on Jan 31st about the DD status to which they responses today saying DD is not enchashed. Not sure if they are reporting status on on 31st Jan or on Date :)
who did you raise the query to your bank or CIC? And was it via email?
 
Thank You :)

Kindly share your view on this my posting.

Thank you.

I heard from insights that last it was charged on 20th Novembor and its capped after that.

What do you mean from "insights"? Where from, exactly?
Any such "rumors" for 2172?
 
Hi friends,

I am a 9th december Applicant from India. My NOC is 2172. If God Forbid, my application is returned then what is the estimated time to get back the package or if it has to be returned, then it would have been in January itself.

My second query is, when should I call my bank to know about my DD status.

Please share your insight.


Regards,
Aziz.

Hi Seniors

NOC - 2172
Application Received Date - December 15, 2014
Application Status - Rejected

I just now called up CIC to ask for my app status.. they said it has been reviewed and returned bck today .. reason being some documents missing... I have attached all the required and mandatory documents?? My HR didnot issue me a letter with Roles and Responsibilities.. bt she gave employment letter stating Designation, DOJ, Hrs wrked per week etc... For JOb Duties, I presented a letter from manager along with his Business Card and from a colleague...

What can be there which is missing?? and what can be their expectations?? Any suggestions or idea?? And further what can be done with it?

Hi Bhanu,

Sorry to hear about your File rejection, I am too 2172 Applicant 15 Dec 2014. I called up CIC yesterday, he CIC agent asked me few questions and told me that they haven't opened my file yet so no status is available.

My friend share the same timeline for same NOC 2172, he also called up CIC and got same response.

From this forum so far we have 3 statuses for 2172 15 Dec applications
1. CC charged for 2172 15 dec( confirmed by hopefullimmigrant), there are only 2 applicants who confirmed this news here(from SS).
2. File not opened yet ( confirmed case of me and my friend ).
3. File rejected (Confirmed by Bhanu)

Its really confusing how CIC is handling the applications.

Hello Aziz,

Dear All,
I have sent my FSW application in Dec 2014. On 31st Jan 2015, I received a message from my bank stating that 1000 CAD has been debited from your credit card by Citizenship & Immigration Canada. But till date i have not received the confirmation mail from CIC. How much more time (approximately) does it take to receive a mail from CIC.

Thanks in advance
