I don't agree with your point that I have highlighted. No one knows in advance which file will make it to the NOC. No one knows whose credit card may fail while charging. No one knows in advance that out of 350 files, 300 will definitely make it. It might be that only 250 go through. They can't stop work inbetween and start again.
Oh, NOC is not reached, lets start again and do the intial checks.
Only when cap is filled, they will stop working in that NOC and start sending files back.
The Process

1) CIO Sydney – Completeness check
Once your application arrives at CIO, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada the first thing that happens is it will undergo a completeness check. This check will ensure:
- That you have included all required forms
- That any forms which have space for a signature have been signed and dated
- That you have not left any blank fields
- That you have included the correct payment fee
- That you have included all supporting documents required by both the main CIO checklist, and the visa-office specific checklist

If unsuccessful your entire application will be returned to you by regular post with a covering letter. You will not get an email notification from CIO.


Raj's application didnt go to the next stage ( assuming if this is the work flow ) they would screen x number of applications initially and then send them to the next stage where you might find many rejected due to CC/ DD ( expiry or rejection from CC ) ...am only reffering to one case which i saw ..so dont jump the gun this is for understanding if this might be the case...

Next Stage..
2) CIO Sydney – Payment charged
If your completeness check is successful your payment will be taken. This means CIO will attempt to charge your credit card, or they will cash your banker's draft, depending on which method of payment you chose.

If your payment is unsuccessful your entire application will be returned to you by regular post with a covering letter. You will not get an email notification from CIO.
 
It's possible that we may recruit couple more different time zone admins ;)

Hey....
I just wanted to put my views into the same too...
What I believe is they are not using any information system to tell whether CAP is reached or not... But inspite a software...like SAP or some high tech module... (definitely way out of my scope ;D ) ...
Also..what I believe is they are time punching and storing all the applications received....putting all the applications into one queue....(this queue is global... as in including applications from AEO and Sponsors included etc... )
So.. when they pick up a file from the queue to punch in the exact NOC (as they asked us to mention on the envelope) ...
the software then shows.... ~~SO MANY ~~ setas available... and if seats are filled....................
THEY HAVE A " YOUR FILE IS REJECTED" stamp placed just next to the officer's left hand... ;D ...
And a bunch of LETTERS printed in advance for every occasion... with a common wording explaining the exact situation the software shows.... ;D

There is a bucket next to the officer's right foot at about... 2 meters.. in which he throws ...while the applicant might be sipping a cup of coffee in front of the TV watching the latest seasons of THE BIG BANG THEORY ..... ;D

;)
(By this post I am not aiming anyone or aim to hurt anyone's situation or feelings). :)
Talking about complex information systems they using....

Probably they work that way

 
Guys, please send me an email address to which i can write an email asking CIC to update me on my application status. Now we are in May 17th applications, so i guess i am out of the race.

Don't loose hope. We have seen many 10th/13th applications getting charged after some of the 15th applications were charged.
Try calling CIC as many did and got some clue of what's happening to their application or you may reach them at CIO‑Sydney‑Search‑Enquiry@cic.gc.ca

thanks to you and jigzzy!!!!ya let's see. Fingers crossed!!!
 
Guys, CIC could easily decrease their own workload tenfolds.
And save money and effort of thousands applicants at the same time, simply by timely updates of their cap count.

No need to speculate about their inner working, because it is a total mess.
