Hello, I am having problems linking my account to paper application. It says 'application number doesn't match category.' or cannot perform function. The 'online tool' to check basic status says 'in process,' but I really want to see exactly what stage we're at.

Application went into process end of Sept 2018. I've only received 'centralized intake' end of Oct. Received nothing since....?

Can anyone tell me why I cant link my application? Or how to find out what stage we're at?

Thank you.

Linking is a 'black art' and some people never manage it (through no fault of their own).
