Past 120 days

[sandiego]

Hi,

I got a go ahead from Sydney in March 2009. So far I couldn't submit my application to Buffalo. It is past 120 days. Now if I send my application package, would they accept?

regards,
Jojy

I doubt it very much.

Expect a refusal letter, from OB 120

B)  Applicants who do not submit anything within the deadline

The CIO informs applicants that a visa officer will make the final determination of eligibility for processing on the basis of the information on file once the 120 days has elapsed. Visa offices are not required to remind applicants of this deadline.

    * Visa officers will make a final determination of eligibility for processing on the basis of the information on file (electronic file). Without a complete application and supporting documents, the officer is unlikely to be satisfied the applicant meets the requirements of the MI.
    * Visa officers should be able to make final determinations quickly in the absence of any submission.
    * Enter CAIPS notes: The notes should clearly state the final determination of eligibility was made based on the information available. Visa officers must enter notes to this effect (see suggested wording below):

The CIO informed the applicant he/she had 120 s to submit a complete application with supporting documents to this office. The CIO also informed the applicant a final determination of whether the application can be placed into processing according to the Ministerial Instructions of November 28, 2008, would be made at this office based on the available information as of the 120 day deadline. The applicant has not submitted a complete application and supporting documents. I have reviewed the available information and am not satisfied there is sufficient evidence this application is eligible for processing.

    * The letter in Appendix A to this bulletin should be sent to applicants who do not submit a complete application and supporting documents, and who receive a negative final determination. As no paper file exists, please copy and paste the letter into CAIPS notes.
