Checklist questions

Before you treat this as the official list.

Is this the official MIFI checklist?

No. It is a general preparation list. Confirm the exact current requirements for your stream directly with MIFI before submitting.

Do I need English test results?

English is not scored in the PSTQ. Keep results only if another process (or MIFI for a specific case) asks for them.
