Hi guys,

My case is a bit strange, please give me your thoughts.

1)App received on May 8th
2)CC charged on June 20th
3)On Status check, it is 'IN PROCESS' since about 2 weeks ago. I have a previous UCI number.
4) No PER email from CIO
5) I emailed for asking the status, but no answer.

Any idea what actions should I take from now on?
I was going to input my data to spread sheet as soon as I receive PER email after I knew this forum.

Cheers!

Alfee

Dear experts,

Please let me know do I have ANY chance if I apply for FSW in some 10 days from now, for NOC 2174?

Thanks a lot for your help...
 
**CORRECTION MADE**
Admins - pls add XBOX7. Got a message from him. NOC: 2174, VO: New Delhi, app received: 13 May. Dont know much more apart from below. Thanks...

Hello All,
After seeing replies to my post, I realized that all the criticism was needed.
so here is my update:

Today my cc was charged, but the date of payment made in my credit card transaction history is of Thursday 12th July. Its the same day I got the message earlier that transaction was declined. Bank guys have completed the earlier transaction(I don't know how). I don't know if I should be happy about it or not. How will CIC come to know, that the payment has been made now . I know, 1100 CAD will be deposited in their account, but still have doubt if my case is on track.

How I resolved CC issue:

After making several attempts calling at SBI credit card help desk, I went to SBI bank. I met Bank Manager and she told me that Credit card section is not under SBI , they have out sourced it to some 3rd party(GE Capital) so they cant do anything in this regard. Then I found the credit card and payment section office in Hyderabad(my city) and went there today morning and explained everything. The guy told me that he needs to update this issue to head office in Gurgaon and he dropped an e-mail and told me to check again after 4 hours. He gave me a reference number to track my case. I checked after 3 hours, my international transaction was activated and within 5 mins I got this message that my credit card has been charged with hank1100 CAD. When I checked my credit card transaction history, the payment date was of Thursday 12th July.

Now my suggestion to all SBI CC frends, keep calling help desk and confirm if international transaction is activated and are there any new guidelines that might stop transactions. Keep pushing them.

Also, now what will be the next step after payment is made?

Thank u all
 
And congratulations to the applicants who got PER / DD encashments & CC charges :)

Hmmm don't know the reliability of this information. But if it's true, I have missed the bus narrowly.

What is your NOC? I guess CIC is just double checking some stuff. When (and with who) did you do your ECA?
 
Dear admins, I wanted to know the average time between the app. received and fees charged for each date and made this worksheet in your spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Av6RCiDw9B3BdHA3UFhXdWN3WF8ydXduZDZmaUV6TFE#gid=31

If you think it can be useful to others, please add it to the spreadsheet with your formatting. I tried to insert a tendency line but I don't know how.

Thanks.

Its very highly unlikely that you will be within 300 cap for 2174. Hope there will be a CAP update in 10 days from now, so that you have a clear picture.

Mate, I don't know how useful this graph is. Basically, the magic number is around 60 days and is prob going to rise...
