hi there!

i am confused about the 2-Self Addressed Mailing Label... how did you guys do it?

Its Just a Normal Label Stickers , try to find some White Blank Sticker And write your Name and Full address in English and in your Current Location's Local Language, it will be used when they will send you any communication so they dont need to print any name on env. just will stick those sticker , its is good to send them 3 to 5 lables though 2 are required ,

Hello Dear all
Hope everyhting is going fine with U.
I just sent my application yesterday. When and how will I be imformed by the CIO that they have received my dox? Will they send me any reference number for tracking my status?When will I get the File Number in if my case is put into process?
And something I have just realized now to my great despair is that I haven't included the old passport copies on which we have travelled a couple of times.Actually I have completed the travel history form and listed all the trips according to our old passports as well as the new ones.Is my file going to be returned as incomplete? Does any body know what should I do? Thank U and wish All The Luck To U All.

CIO will not inform you. If u have sent it via express courier service(fedex/DHL/TNT) then check the tracking system to find out whether your application has been received by CIO. U can also check with your bank to find out whether your bank draft has been encashed or not.
If u have mentioned in your application form that u travelled some places outside your country, then travel documents is mandatory.As your new passport also has proof of travel, CIO might not find it as incomplete.

Dear Seniors

Hi. I am quite new to this forum. I was not lucky enough to get to know it before ,which for sure would have helped a lot, and would have spared me the deep regret I feel now.
Could someone please explain what has gone with the post june 26 applications? Is there anybody that has got some email,reference number,or written letter from the CIO with regards to the application sent after june 26? Is there anybody that has received their application returned by the CIO? How long does it take for the app. to be returned since the CIO receives it? I am very likely in need for reapplying. That's really sad to be wishing your app. being returned faster to be able to reapply in a timely manner.

And Finally, What is this 33 weeks stuff? Could someone pls clarify?

Any answer would be truly appreciated.

Welcome katyspring

Congrats for sending the application. As for your worry / query .... regarding non submission of old PP copy. It is our guess/ initiative to send the same. It is not mentioned anywhere except that we have to send copy of our present (valid) passport. We are submitting the same (if we have traveled on that) as a proof for our travel history statement!!! I sincerely don't think there will be a problem.... 8) 8) 8)
Our good friends who have submitted their applications are all waiting for some response ??? ??? ???
Few (un)lucky ones have received their applications back and few unlucky ones (with added bad luck!!) applications are either lost or untraceable :'( ........... Initially (August/Sept), it was taking between 2 to 4 weeks (returned application) ...... now it is worst ....anywhere between 2 to 12 weeks!!!
Others are just waiting for some email,reference number,or written letter from the CIO ....... (as you asked) :

33 weeks stuff is nothing but the maximum (or minimum....god knows) waiting period as claimed by few applicants, as informed by CIO agents, as instructed by CIO to these agents, as ....what (k)not!!!

Don't worry, be happy......!! After submission, nobody can do anything. What was your mode of payment??? If it's CC you will soon hear some good news....

Cheers, Anil

Dear Anil

Thank u for quick reply, and the welcome. It was so kind of u. Unfortunately I had no choice but paying through Money Order which I asked a friend in Canada to buy and send me. This kind of payment is untraceable if I'm not mistaken ,except for the AOR from the CIO that seems to be more than elusive so far.Is there any other way I could track my money order status? I don,t have a CC and BD is not available in my country. The only option was MO as I mentioned.
I'm frustrated. The whole process has been so bumpy for me. I got my IELTS result by sep 10th. I had decided to use the service of a representative based in Canada, and I expected my file to have been sent as soon as my test result was taken. After being held in anticipation for more than one month I found out that we were being misled by the lawyer, and we had a lot of documents lost. I was lucky to have the rest of the dox back, and then it was a new start again from scratch. Thank god, I still had my test result, a band 8 that was of great value to me. So I started over.Now I am at this point, wishing that I had my application back to get it absolutely flawless. Reading the posts yesterday has implied this sense that there are a group out there in the CIO who are prying on our tiniest flaws to reject our case when there might be no time left.
Anyway, I hope u and everybody who has apllied , will soon get good news.

Hey Katy,

I guess the same too There is nothing you can do now before you hear from CIO. It might not be a problem and they might ask for the old passport copies.

Good luck

Thanks,

Indira Prabhakaran.
