We will start reviewing your application immediately after receiving it. This marks the start of the 13-week consideration period. We will first verify whether you completed the application form in full and included all required documents. If we find that information is missing, you will be given the opportunity to supplement your application within a specified deadline. The consideration period will then be suspended.
