No reason to be alarmed until you are alarmed, I pray it goes smoothly well for you and keep hoping for the best. Not sure anyone can tell you exactly what it is but since you have pre arrival, it means your eligibility is completed on the new tracker and that's a positive movement. It's either PPR or ADR but I hope you get PPR. When you say ghost update, is it on gckey because some people call the last update on the new tracker ghost update? Either ways, keep being positive!

Hello everyone
I got ADR in February and I got AOR March 29th..... normally it takes 30days for a final decision to be made but it’s more than that now and still there’s no change on my application. Please has anyone experienced this?

Says who? Sorry, that is not how it goes.....With accra AVO, we don't have people working there. The place is empty and officers comes there once in blue moon to check on applications. Start talking about more months like 3-8 month after ADR...Hmm, worse visa regional office ever

No officers working at that Location I guess!! Covid has helped all officers to travel abroad I believe...hmm!! Did you say 4 month? Pray so they don't extend it.....Don't let anybody working at AVO hears it please...hmmm!! They take peoples visions and emotions as a field of play

3-8months? I guess you are referring to an ADR that comes before medical.

Your timeline shows you are one of the blessed individuals to be processed at Accra. Ghost updates also shows your file is being worked on. 2 things you must learn when your file is in Accra is to... 1. be patient 2. be positive. At least for now.

No reason to be alarmed
