It was done and hopefully going to be like this:
1 - They first open the package, check if all required signs are done, all required documents are present, and all fields are filled. IF YES, than goes to next stage, IF NOT, they pack again, and send back.

2 - This stage, a Visa Officer at CIO decides the completeness of the application including matching job duties, calculating points and stuff [basically he goes through all of the documents what we have sent]. If you pass this stage, than your CC / DD will get cashed, a UCI will be assigned, and you will get an AOR, and your file will be transferred to respective visa office [will take few weeks for all these]. Beyond this stage, if get rejected, no refund will be made. IF CIO VO officer decides that something is missing, or job duties are not matched, he'll prepare a rejection letter, and you will get your application back without getting charged along with letter.

3 - Local CHC VO than studies your case, and basically all the Background checks, medical, Passport and stuff are done in this stage. If everything is okay, RPRF is sent and Issues a Visa. If something gets wrong, gets rejection and no fee refund.

That's it.

Thanks for that info.

Hi Guys, I would like to ask since in the checklist,

- It is stated to provide a Copy otherwise original... Does this mean that "copies" are always certified true copies?
- Since I don't have dependents, I will just remove all the documents for Statutory Union and Additional dependents?
- Which is a better courier in your experience, fedex or DHL?

Thanks in advance

This is from the instruction guide(cic web.):
Certified true copies
To have a photocopy of a document certified, an authorized person must compare the original document to the photocopy and must print the following on the photocopy:

“I certify that this is a true copy of the original document”,
the name of the original document,
the date of the certification,
his or her name,
his or her official position or title, and
his or her signature.
Who can certify copies?

Persons authorized to certify copies include the following:

In Canada:

a commissioner of oaths
a notary public
a justice of the peace
Outside Canada:

a judge
a magistrate
a notary public
an officer of a court of justice
a commissioner authorized to administer oaths in the country in which the person is living
Family members may not certify copies of your documents.
 
My QQ seem to be lost somewhere

Yes, it's alright.
They will give you later UCI number.
 
Does one have an UCI number if he/she got Canada visitor visa.
 
That is an optional field. It is ok.


Please share your application stats with us so that we can add you to the spreadsheet. VO/NOC/Application status/sent date/payment type/application receipt date.

Thanks

Hi Martha,

I also have photocopies of my passport and adaptability evidences (monthly bills of my brother, his PR card). Does it make sense to provide certified true copies of those too? Thanks in advance
