INTEGRA Verification is it off??/ on??

[push]

Saw couple of posts on the forum that INTEGRA verification has now been scrapped but I found the following on VFS India website :

IntegraScreen Verification

Please note that if you have applied under PBS Tier 1 General Migrant or PBS Tier 1 transitional scheme, your supporting documents will be sent to Integra Screen for verification. This process can take up to two weeks. The visa process will be completed only after this verification.

For all other category of visas, applicants can avail of an optional verification process through Integra Screen. This would fast track your application. The Integra website has more details.

Does anybody know what the actual status is?

Integra verification is indeed now scrapped, however BHC now does verification on its own, if they have a doubt on the applicant.

I was told this by the VFS person to whom I handed over my application.
