Very good joe07...Its always better be be precise rather than assume or speculate anything.joe07 said: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.
Or we can have seperate thread for Speculation about CIC Working!!!!!
