Stay positive Syed. Because your DD is already realized, more chances are that you'll receive PER.

I dont know whether my DD is encashed or not... I guess it shud be encashed by now.

Best line that I've heard is this: no news is good news, at least in terms of immigration application.

Until you hear anything from CIC, it's highly unlikely that your file is rejected. So stay positive and wait patiently. Patience and immigration go hand in hand.

application received in the 3rd week of may and credit card has not been charged yet and still no update about it todate. what could be the reason? is it game over for me?

Thanks, let me follow up.

Update: when following-up, realized that I sent the email on 27th Aug, not 17th. So that way, it's been only 28 business days since then. Will wait until next week. I'm also expecting PER by Monday or Tuesday.

A gentle applicant has shared his timeline of CIO query by PMing me. It took him 7 weeks to get an answer from them. So, even if they don't respond on the 30th business day, they may still do it later. It is outrageous of course.

 

[fswp2014applicant]

So wait until early next week. Good if you get your PER, if not, you'll need to follow up with your bank again.

0013 is not going to be capped so you have time to include your TRF if you wish. If you are borderline on points you can do it to have a cushion. If you want to print a new page that is fine, but don't claim any fluency in French unless you're going to include the TRF.

Hey seniors,

Just to be crystal clear on this matter, everybody agrees I should either:

- Change my Generic Application Form so that it doesn’t claim any French knowledge;

- Wait for the TEF to arrive so that everything that is mentioned on the Generic Application Form is confirmed;

Because the lawyer’s opinion is that since my main language is English – as stated on the Schedule 3 – I only need to send the IELTS and the Generic Application Form may mention I speak French.

Actually, reading the Generic Application Form and the Document Checklist I tend to agree with the lawyer’s opinion on this subject. On section 9 of the Checklist, they say that “If claiming points for both official languages, submit test results for both”

What’s your take?

CIO can just do few simple things to make life easier for applicants:

1. As soon as a file is received, enter into system which will assign file # (generate UCI , if needed) and send auto confirmation to applicant. This will also help when people need to send additional docs.

2. Send standard email to all applicants, explaining process and its phases. This way, people won't need to get this info from other sources like agents and forums rather they'll have authentic official info.

3. Add more levels of status on ECAS with more details (not just one line status). These may include:

a) File received on XX
b) processed for completeness on XX
c) processed for eligibility on XX
d) fee charged on XX
e) processing at CIO complete on XX(eligibility review: positive/negative)
f) sent to VO on XX
g) received at VO on XX
h) VO started processing on XX
i) MR/RPRF/PCC request sent on XX
j) MR/RPRF/PCC received on XX
k) Decision made on XX. Decision: XXX.
l) Communication sent to applicant on XX

4. add details to CAP status page to confirm CAP numbers cover files processed upto what date. This would man that all files upto this date have been processed for completeness and eligibility.
