Hey, everyone,
I've just recieved nomination from SINP and would like to share my timeline:
ITA - 25.09.2019
AOR - 15.11.2019
In process - 05.12.2019
Invoice tab disappeared - 10.12.2019
Funds conversion date changed/Invoice tab reappeared - 12.12.2019
NOMINATION - 13.12.2019
Even though my reference letter didn't meet the SINP requirements (no duties and responsibilities), I had no ADR. However, to provide the required information, I attached so called "Job descrition" - a vague and poorly written document, which is issued in our organization when you get hired or promoted to another position. But it seems like SINP officers were satisfied with it. In addition, I also attached a document from pension fund (as governement issued) and tax return for 2018 (also government issued).
I know another person who aslo was nominated just 1 month after submission. Besides, if you check immitracker, there are many more cases like that. So it seems like not only they updated their program rules in September, but also hired new officers (or maybe just found another way to speed up the process), which makes everything quicker. Hopefully, after they get more statistics on recent nominations, we will see an update of their processing time from 41 weeks to 4-6 weeks!
