How do I know my SMC application is offshore or onshore

[jilufe]

Hi All,

Does anyone know if SMC application is put from onshore to offshore queue, would the applicant receive any email notification about the change?
If the SMC application was submitted onshore, will INZ put the application to offshore if the applicant was stuck oversea due to the COVID-19 issue?

Appreciate your help on this! Thank you!

Yes the applicant should've received an email informing them that their application has been moved to the offshore queue. If your application was lodged onshore, but you are now offshore, your application will have already been moved to the offshore queue until you are back onshore. You can always contact the Immigration Contact Centre as they should be able to easily identify the location of an application.
