C50 Eligibility Determination: Pre-processing stage that comprises the two reviews of the application against Ministerial Instructions that occur at CIO Sydney and at the visa office responsible for the application. Once this stage is complete, processing either begins with a positive eligibility determination or the application is closed and processing fees are refunded.
C50 Final Eligibility Determination: Review of the complete application against Ministerial Instruction eligibility criteria performed at visa office after referral from CIO Sydney. This review draws on local expertise crucial in evaluating supporting documents submitted to the visa office that are not initially provided to CIO Sydney.
C50 Initial Eligibility Determination: Review of the preliminary application received at CIO Sydney. A positive decision regarding eligibility for processing (Paper-screening decision “4”) results in the electronic transfer of the application to the responsible visa office abroad. The date of this decision constitutes the lock-in date for processing. Processing time service standards are calculated from this date.
