Noticed that too. But most october applicants who received their dm/ppr are all coming from cpcm. Most of those transferred to local vo are still waiting (ours included)It seems that most people here have already received their VISAS. We just got the medical exam requests for my husband and stepson - 6 months from the time we submitted - and there was absolutely NOTHING on the ECAS or GCKey up until today.
I believe that our file is still in Mississauga. Havana is a challenging place right now - skeleton staff at the embassy.Noticed that too. But most october applicants who received their dm/ppr are all coming from cpcm. Most of those transferred to local vo are still waiting (ours included)
Let’s hang in there and trust the perfect timing
What I have been hearing from others in the Cuba stream, is that Mississauga is processing almost everything, and only sending the file to Havana for issuing the VISA - once everything is in order. Just one month ago my file was in Mississauga, so I suspect it is still there. The timeline says approx 6 months more. Feeling a bit more hopeful than I was before, but I understand the challenges with Cuba. I think it helps that we are both the same age (and middle-aged) and have an 8 year old. We have some history lolThe timeline says 12 months?
But It seems if your application was processed initially in Mississauga then it moves faster especially for Oct. applicants.
Also the speed seems dependent on the PA's country of origin. If file transferred to the local visa office there is good chance
of other country specific and background check delays. Just process like Cattle...Everyone gets an ear tag with a number. Hopefully you can meet their criteria upfront and not get put in the slow line. Many have already received their Visa's from Oct. and are together with their loved ones.
Every day that passes is a day closer

You are not alone, I also got my medical request after 6 months and a week from the time of submission from London visa office.It seems that most people here have already received their VISAS.

I think, you can ask your husband to sign form, then scan it and send it to you.Hello everyone!
My husband's file was transferred to the visa office in Sri Lanka about a month ago, and today we received a request to re-submit the Schedule A - Background Declaration form with additional information. According to the letter, we can submit the document online through the GCKey; however it requires my husband's signature (principal applicant) at the end of the document. Does anyone know if an electronic signature alone is acceptable or whether he needs to have a handwritten signature as well? I know that when we originally submitted all the documents to CIC in Canada, they required both on the Schedule A form, however how does it work after it has been transferred to the visa office of the PA?
I think you can still submit via gckey even if it was transferred to local VO..Hello everyone!
