You just have to wait for there email now. There’s nothing else you can do. Hope for the best they reply in next month.
 
I'm also in the same boat. Applied in Feb. File transferred to NVDO on May 9th and no updates since then. Just says "In Process".
 
NDVO ;they won't update everything, but all of a sudden something shows up

Did anybody here received transfer email from CPC Sydney to CPC Mississauga and then transfer again to NDVO?
 
YES they seem to be doing this now ONLY for certain "less complicated cases" so that they are processed INLAND. Visa Officer makes a decision right here even if the Applicant is Outland. BUT if V/Officer has doubts it could make rather more delays. Because file can still be sent to Visa Office abroad, which will or will not be standing in the same lineup? This I am not sure..May be some senior member will help here.
 
Oh.. is it the new normal sequence of file movement?
No, im asking because an abnormally large number of applicants in Sydney were transferred to Mississauga instead of a local VO and I was told that an applicant from NDVO received a second email from Sydney saying that the first transfer was an error and that their application was now being transferred to NDVO, so I just want to hear from that person

OH ok but no one else got message like that eh!
 
Hi everyone. I'm not sure about the next update as the application got transferred to NDVO without the medical being received (atleast not on ECAS). Is it normal ?
