Understanding the case workflow
A walkthrough of all seven case statuses and what you need to do at each stage.
Every case in MigraIQ moves through seven stages. Understanding each one helps you know exactly where you are in the process and what to do next.
The seven stages
1. Intake
You are filling out the intake questionnaire. Answer every section as accurately as possible. Your answers determine which documents appear on your checklist, so incomplete answers can lead to a checklist that does not match your real situation.
What to do: Complete all sections. Use the progress bar at the top to see how much is left.
2. Checklist
The intake is complete and your document checklist has been generated. You can now see every document you need, organized by category (identity, financial, travel purpose, ties, and so on).
What to do: Review the checklist. Start gathering your documents. Note which items are marked Mandatory since those are required for a complete application.
3. Uploads
You are actively uploading documents. For each checklist item, you can attach one or more files. MigraIQ will run OCR on each file automatically to extract key information.
What to do: Upload files for every mandatory checklist item. Watch for any Signals (flagged issues) that appear as files are processed.
4. Analyzing
You have triggered report generation and MigraIQ is processing your data. This stage is automatic and usually takes under two minutes.
What to do: Wait. You will receive a notification when the report is ready.
5. Report
Your Strength Report is ready. It includes your overall application score, a written assessment of strengths and weaknesses, and a breakdown of any Signals that need your attention.
What to do: Read the report carefully. Work through any high or critical Signals before generating your Document Pack.
6. Pack
Your Document Pack is ready. This is the final output you will use during your application: a cover letter, evidence index, home ties analysis, financial narrative, risk mitigations, interview prep questions, and more.
What to do: Review the pack, download the PDF (Pro and Agency users), and use it to prepare for your interview or submission.
7. Complete
The workflow is finished. You can still access and re-download your report and pack at any time (subject to plan expiry rules for Essential users).
Can I go back to a previous stage?
You cannot move a case backwards to a previous status. However, you can always continue uploading documents, resolving Signals, and generating an updated report (Pro and Agency users can regenerate as many times as they like).
