In most cases applications will move automatically through the necessary bins as the applicant is nominated and admitted; it should be rare that you will have to move an application manually. Be careful when moving an application from one bin to another as we do not want any application to get lost and end up in the wrong place! If you are ever unsure about moving an application, reach out to your evaluator for clarification.
