LONDON Visa Office Applicants....Lets connect here

[BillHyatt]

UPDATES:

- As I predicted that we will see a large number of PPR and ADR this Friday. I have verified more than 2 Dozen of PPR and there are few ADR as well.

- Those who received Ghost Updates with nothing so far should not be disappointed as you will receive PPR soon. You should be happy that at least analyst is updating something in your file as for many months it was untouched.

- It is recommended to stop emailing till April 3 as Analysts are working really hard to issue maximum PPR by next week to clear backlogs and receiving 1000's of emails mean most of their time is utilised in providing statuses to the department.

- I realise waiting is frustrating but you are one step closer to the golden email.

Good Luck to you all.

Files selected for Security Screening will see S.15 or S.16 with blank pages in their GCMS notes while for normal files this will not be the case.

Just to update you, I have received PPR today. Thanks again for your assistance.

London is working on clearing applications from August/September and a majority of the PPR is received by these applicants. July PNP applications are almost processed and approved (excluding security screening applicants), however, they are issuing controlled or restricted PPR to specific nationalities due to International Relations and Security reasons. These nationalities applicants may have to wait longer to receive PPR despite being finalised and approved.

 

[BillHyatt]

One more trend that London is showing is that they are issuing PPR on a reverse order of a month, so next July PPR may be received with applicants with AOR of July 29,28 then July 27,26 and so on. Similar to August/September.

It seems that they have scheduled ADR or PPR by dates of AOR.

 

[BillHyatt]

Applications Processed by Months:

June = 99%
July = 75% (expected to complete by next week)
August = 47%
September = 29%

@BillHyatt
Any idea when they would start processing October AOR?

As I mentioned earlier focus in on August and September. After that October November will be processed. However, there will be random PPR from every month.

I guess taking the speed of processing into consideration it may take April to complete Aug/Sep Applications. Then in May, we can see the processing of Oct and onward files.

Canada House remains off on weekends. Maybe few analysts are working on the weekend but the rest of staff is not available.

However, PPR or ADR seems to be scheduled (like time is set for email) and applicants receive them on weekends and holidays as well.

You are a great guy, Bill.
Always appreciated!
