Please note that there were too many changes happened on the immigration procedures after 2012. I am not even sure if my experience and timeline will be a good basis as of now.

I think they will not return your file (hopefully). CIO will send you an AOR if the documents/forms are completed based on their current procedures/ checklist and they will forward it to the local VO(LVO or ADVO). Goodluck.

Dear sset12,

I am Pakistani citizen and living in UAE since last 7 years. In Nov 2007 I had applied for FSW programme and at that point of time as per CIC website sent application kit to London Visa Office.

In Mar 2012, they have given opportunity to transfer application to PNP under FSW Backlog programme. In short I have been nominated by Ontario as PNP under FSW Backklog.

In Feb 2013 I sent my application kit to CIO, at that point of time I didn't release that it was Provincial Economic class, and without noticed I had mentioned London as Visa Office . While as per CIC website only for Federal Economic London should mention as VO. Now I am confused, will they return application back to me or they will forward application to ADVO or London?

Hi Iha,
I am so new in this forum .. maybe you can help me understand the procedures you went through... I am currently 6 months pregnant and I received an email saying that our application is forwarded to ADVO... I would just like to know how can I apply to add my newborn in our application? Thank you so much and God bless... btw, I am also from AbuDhabi ;)
