i have been checking the timeline sheet.....saw few people who sent application after me have File # 1XXX series while mine though sent before them has 2XXX series (few cases with same NOC).... dnt understand how AIPN is giving these file numbers. I think once they receive our application they allocate a bunch of them to different people for further processing & then our luck totally depends on how fast the person dealing with our application processes it plus also the traffic in that NOC - our 2171 is too crowded
. This is something we can do nothing about - just wait! Few application received by AIPN after my application(i am considering only new process): mine:received application 3/17, file 21XX, file received 8/4, noc 2171.
- Malu: received 3/20/2009, #17XX, but got file # later than mine on 8/25...dnt know the NOC so this should be ignored
- journey2ainp: received on 3/27/2009; #15XX, file received 6/25 before mine + same NOC 2171 in this case
Saw a few more cases like this: check out march applicant "smileyster,sman & us_to_ab" suddenly us_to_ab has 1XXX series and got file no in May while the rest two got file # in july and is 2XXX series.... but i guess different NOC is the reason here.
@ JAsper pls add me in timeline: applied under new process: NOC 2171; Application received :around 3/17/2009; File no#21XX received on 08/04/2009; no mails/calls yet!!
