Anybody have experience with Christchurch Area Office, what is their timeframe for SMC applications?
I also have an doubt how to organize my ITA documents for sending.
On London Branch they have some kind of tips for lodging residence applications under the SMC as following
• Please do not submit your application in a file or plastic sleeves.
Is that general advice for all offices including Christchurch Area Office?
For me is much easier to organize my documents in such sleeves or files.
Nevertheless, I prepared following documents in support of my application:
