Don't like the sound of that at all, an IO making up his/her requirements. Unless it is an audit to uncover agent bypassing of past requirements!

 

Ridiculous request and I would be tempted to ask to see her superior.

However, I ended up not getting my extension for another reason: The immigration officer noticed that this was my 4th retirement extension and wanted to see my financial proof going back those three prior years.  Basically she wants to do an audit of my entire history of retirement extensions before granting me another one.

Were the previous extensions done at CW?

Were the previous extensions done via an Agent?

 

This sounds like they are not making as much agent-money as expected - many likely went out and bought new cars when the new rules went into effect, expecting a windfall - and are now desperate to force more applicants to agents.
