Second Question: Yes.
codicil to 2nd question: but not normally unless you are a run of the mill PMET who could just as easily be a local. Then possibly no.

Re: IPA processing time for EP/DP
That's normal. That means ICA is working with their vetting agencies based in your country of residence to check your credentials. This additional move is common when the candidate is from India, Myanmar and some countries where documentation fraud is endemic. Having said that, I do not mean that every person from these countries is a fraud - it is just that ICA is being extra careful.theworm wrote:sundaymorningstaple wrote:First question: EP -1 to 6 weeks "normally".
