I believe they are currently processing November 2017 applicants, atleast that's what I could gather from some of the whatsapp group messages.

Hoping for an update soon I know some december applicants also who have not received any updates yet. It’s been 9 months and the last update they had was when their file was tranferred to LVO.
I wonder what’s taking them so long and we don’t have any choice but to wait.

LVO is very slow, slowest of all offices i'd say. It's the background check that delays the process. You should be getting something soon, 9 months is getting u close to ur next update. Kp checking your spam/junk folder as well. good luck and kp us posted pls :)
