I meant your app goes through 2 steps:first if you met requirements if so you wont get it returned and second step when officer begins to process your app.
A cic officer told you that personally,first they check if you met the basics requirements then second time another officer starts to process your app?
Congrats
What i can infer, is that they have a check a first time,when they receive application so as to check completeness of application,then they put it away for a while before to open it for processing.
What I also noticed,an AOR seems to mean an application procesesed the next month,which you must mean that officers focus in first on many application prior to grant more AOR.
Hence the no pouring application over the last days.
My two cents.
the worst thing that could be happening,is to have many applications returned after 2 months.I dont thiink this will happen since the return happened within 2-3 weeks maybe 1 month at maximum
over past days,AORs kind of were pouring for 16th october applicants,let's hope for those of 20th october will be coming out soon,it should i remain optimistic
If noboby has a return and everybody gets a AOR graduaaly those who made application early and late october shoudnt be receiving any return.
Ive been checking my mail everyday cause i sent pictures with size under old regulations,but i got them stamped and dated, and also wittren my name on back.
Ah ok that makes sens,if met requirement time but had sent 2 forms with 2 differents dates,they woulve considered your application.
They must have assumed you hadnt met time requirements.
it s an assumption but i feel that the officers have a first check on the application as soon they are received and put it on the pile to be processed right after.
For those who fear of a possible loss,it might not.These applications contain many confidential infos including national insurance...
your return is quite fast,just have stamped and dated your photos, and repack your doc and send it out ,no need to pay again.
Does it mean for those who s been waiting for more than a month have made a complete application and may not have their app returned,i hope so
Indeed it's clearly mentionned that some new ones will be asked,but in no way a return is mentioned.
Let s hope an AOR for all of us very soon,today seems to be very calm.
Apparently those who sent their applications on 16th december might still have their applications returned.
I hope not, i dont care about time we ll have to wait but i expect mt application to be returned due to pictures with size under old regulations.<
My application was received on october 20th.
