From reading the thread of previous years KVO applicants, it appears that the majority of applicants from Jamaica are indeed scheduled for an interview. Some interviews are more intense, others are just a quick few questions, but most then have their passport stamped on the spot (if approved) immediately after interview.
well then i guess some nations are more watched than some others. i guess is lso related to the fact about who have to loose the worse in this thing. when they see it's mostly just one side....

Correct, KVO applicants are very often called for interviews as is the case with some other offices/nationalities.
 
i won't be affected personnally if they ask for interview as we have a really genuine relationship with tons of proofs. i guess it's just part of their job.

We are pleased to inform you that you, your spouse and dependants can now receive free pre-arrival services funded by the Government of Canada. These services are available before you arrive and are meant to better prepare you for life in Canada.
Pre-arrival services are provided on behalf of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) by settlement service provider organizations. These service providers offer free information to help you with:
• Living and working in Canada;
• Getting your education, work experience, and professional licenses and
certificates recognized in Canada;
• Connecting with employers, and with free supports when you arrive in Canada,
including language training; and
• Connecting with others in your new community, including French-speaking
communities.
If you are outside Canada, we strongly recommend that you use pre-arrival services before you leave.
When you register for pre-arrival services with one of the service providers listed on the website, you will be asked to provide a copy of this letter. You can contact as many service providers as you like and receive as many services as you need, and these services are always at no cost to you.

Ok so I have just added myself back into the spreadsheet after someone deleted us as we have not received SA yet. I find this really sad that someone has done this. This process is not a competition, and is different for everyone. We received AOR and lots of other communication from CIC, so just because we have not officially received SA, does not mean we have to be deleted. We are all in this together, and this group is solely for support; or what I thought was support. So please leave negativity out of this, and ask before you take actions like that.
Thanks :)

I just checked the spreadsheet as well and my info has also been removed. Debating if I should add myself again.

Seriously ? How childish is to erase ppl data wow.
 

Some cases takes up to 1 to 3 months for medical check. Most of times is way faster tho.
