Hello members,

Please advice me, I am planning to submit my FSW application, what I want to ask that we need to send the application to CIO right?
but in the london visa office specific form there is a note that

"All Economic Class applicants (Federal skilled workers, Provincial Nominees and Skilled workers destined to Quebec) from Pakistan, must use these instructions and submit their application to the London, United Kingdom visa office."

Please advice where the applicants from pakistan need to send the application.

it just means that in your application where it says "VO office" you have to put London as this is the VO that is going to process you. You send the application to Nova Scotia and you follow the checklists of both Nova Scotia and London.
