As I indicated before that files are being processed but for some reasons, IP2 is not started. So, finally, we are seeing many applicants moving to IP2 today.

Now 2 Questions are being asked to me in bulk. Firstly, how much average time it takes from IP2 to PPR. Then, next round of batch opening.

1. IP2 to PPR can take from 2 Hours to 2 Months depending on the analyst reviewing your file. Most of the applicants who have seen IP2 today, their files are already reviewed and just a final decision needs to be updated. However, no one can confirm that how much time it will take. On average it takes 21 Days from IP2 to PPR in London Visa Office or few days from ADR related to Bio Page, Height etc.

2. In this round batches from July, August, September, October, and some November are selected while the remaining applicants will have to wait for some time now. The next expected Round of Batches (containing files from November and onwards ) to be processed is expected to start from 28th May 2018.

I hope this will help.

Good Luck to all moving to IP2 today. Wishing you a speedy PPR.

Hi Bill,

Hi @BillHyatt , any chance that this NA in the Documents section means that the review of my file is completed? I am asking becoz I got an email from LVO yesterday that my file is waiting for final review by migration officer, and just today I moved to IP2 and the review of additional documents part change from no need to NA.
Appreciate your response.
Thanks

Only those applicants whose documents were pending to be reviewed by the officer is seeing the status of Not Applicable instead of We do not need additional documents. This is also an indication of the fact that this is not a technical glitch but the real-time status of the applicants' profiles.

Background:
Files were already being reviewed at Local Visa Offices and many pending documents were already reviewed by officers. However, due to system upgrading, it was not getting updated in your profiles.

Now the latest update from IRCC means all pending profiles are updated and we have seen massive IP2 yesterday with some applicants seeing Not Applicable Status in ADR section as well.

NA Impact:
In the past, I have seen a trend of applicants profile changing back to We do not need additional documents from Not Applicable few days before File is approved. However, there are also few cases where PPR was issued without any further change in accounts.

Conclusion:
If any applicants have a doubt on the status of their files that they can apply for GCMS Notes or email their Local Visa Offices to confirm the status of their files.

I hope this will help. Good Luck.

Raise CSE again and email your Local Visa Office with Urgent in Subject. You should get a reply soon or else Call IRCC to advise you on this issue.

I would add just one more point that if after review officer feels that one should have a detailed scrutiny of his background then he would put him in security clearance which might take few months.....

@BillHyatt

Does this mean that background check has been completed and final review is outstanding?

Thanks Bill. How is it that people with Jan FTDs for London Visa Office saw IP2 yesterday. You don't believe that is a glitch?
