Best,
As much as I'll like to answer your question ,i really do not understand it very well.
Accepting your application ....have you submitted or you are planning to submit?
If it is regarding the end of this current FSW2014/2015,it's ending 2015 April 30th which means that you still have till April 30th,2015 to submit .
If it is regarding the analysis of your processes,depending on hen you submit,some of the processes will/may be completed but to be realistic ,not all the processes will be completed before 30th April,2015.
Please kindly let us know if your questions are answered.
Cheers
.

Hey Floxy, from the look of things, u are obviously referring to me. If u check like 3 days ago, I introduced myself, said I'm new in this forum and also gave my details . So I dnt know why u are upset . I dint hear abt this forum until recently n I actually found it difficult to post my first comment. So I wonder why my question offended u, that isn't fair enough from u.
Are you also Landmarkedge? If you're then I am sorry but you should be known by one username. Landmarkedge had just a post and that got me confused. It is well

Please how do you manage a newbie whose first and only post is a pm asking for basic information available on the general forum. I find it rather unfair that someone not willing to be known on the forum and contributing anything to the spreadsheet is seeking information through pM. Its unfair. The right thing to do as a newbie is introduce yourself to the group, provide your statistics and become a member of the forum and all your questions would be answered by everyone. Some people can be really selfish and too-secretive. I dislike that a lot. I have been helped by people here in ways I cant explain. So please rather than hide in the shadow and be sending selfish PMs come out and tell us what we don't know and let us all learn together. The forum is faceless.
Cool cool temper Floxzy and Mariedamzy. Floxy, if the person you are referring to is Mariedamzy, then there's been a bit of misunderstanding because she introduced herself. The pm to you must have stemmed from your wealth of experience as shown by your status in the forum. And Mariedamzy, I believe Floxzy doesn't have anything personal against you, okay? Let us all try to tolerate each other as much as possible. It's a small world after all!
Cheers. :) :) :)

Congrats thebaft.

I am a 2014 applicant and would like to tap from your experience while I wait for AVO as I have a similar situation with yours. I have gotten my PER this month. However, I had a baby about a month after I submitted my fsw application to cic.

Please my questions:

1. Did you receive any communication from AVO before noe?
2. Did AVO contact you to update your profile/changes since you submitted your application? Or you just sent the updated documents based on your experience?
3. What and What documents & forms did you send?
4. How did you send them? By email/post?

Kindly also share any additional info you think will help when the time comes.

Thanks!

If you check our SS very well, u will discover dat almost all may, june and part of july applicants who had their PER in july, august and this september have bn issued MR. Starting with floxzy, about 18 applicants have bn issued MR as at sept. 15 who are on this forum. So for argument sake lets assume 18 apps have also bn issued MR outside this forum as at seot 15 then it means 36 apps hv already had their MR as at sept 15. Also average of 3 apps were issued MR on a daily basis till sept 15(within and outside this forum). On the CIC website they have 24 Pps, 26 apps and 36 apps( 3 of July app fell within sept PER date) for may, june and july respectively of which totals 53 apps who had their PER at best sept 2013, then what it means is that 53 minus 36 will leave us with 19 apps who shd recv MR this month of which five of them are on this forum. On this forum we only have abt 5 pple who are yet to hv MR or may be not reported it. They r Gofame, pickabeau, dada-karma, thebaft and eagle 1. That's why we are not seeing much activities on this forum.
I blv by now they shd have started rest of july since most july apps(99 percent) fall within october PER, but again I think may be they want to delay it till October when they are actually one year after PER. I think the same will go for august, sept etc apps. Who had their PER in november, december, etc.
AVO is very funny becos we all know even with this analysis they don't operate by the rule of the thumb and therefore may start off on july applicants who had PER in october and might even pick from other months. AVO may even start issuing MR to rest of July apps this months. Lets wait and see! My prayer is that AVO move speedily in our favour and no one will be left behind in Jesus name. Amen!

Cheers
Seem to be MRs were issued to applicants whose PER dates were up to September 30 and happened to end with Phine_ay. I think the next batch of MRs in October hopefully will cover applicants with PER dates starting from October 1, starting with Cool K down to ??????. AVO decides

Hi Everyone,

My wife got a new passport to change from her maiden to marital name. How do we communicate this change to AVO? Do we send an email of the new data passage page or do we have to send it courier?. Will appreciate feedback from experienced folks.

Dear kay_diwe2014,
Congratulations on the birth of your child. It is indeed a wonderful thing! I had to inform AVO once my child was born. They will not know until you inform them. If you check my earlier post, you will see the list of documents that I was required to submit. I sent the updated documents via post. If you do it now, you will be able to update your case file before MR is sent.
