Congrats, no the principal applicant lands first.

Can you provide your timeline and Visa office ?

for me 3 years :p
Because yours was in another LVO and when it got to London then it took a year for background check. Of course not an acceptable reason from a customer service point of view.

Spartan went to LLVO from the beginning I is prthink which is pretty good / the 2 years I mean.

Unfortunately, inexperienced reps send files to wrong LVOs right from Mississauga sometimes or the crazy officers at one LVO send to another for background checks or maybe BGC happens only at certain LVO for certain nationalities...and those apps get another year wasted in another LVO like your case.

Hello Guys,

I applied for my parents sponsorship in Nov 2017.
My sponsor approval came in April 2018,

It has been over an year but i have not received any medical request or anything at all.
Last time i requested GCMS notes, the status said as PA: PUT AWAY

My parents are from Pakistan. Visa office is London.

They are usually now in Canada on Super Visa. they go back every year or so.

Im just worried about the whole process, how they deal with the applications. Should i just keep waiting patiently or call them or send them an email asking why the file hasnt been touched in over a year.

Thanks,

Files get Put Away assignment many times while in London. I guess it's a stage between waiting times for other reps or other organizations or the applicant/sponsor to respond. Not the prettiest thing to see on one's file.

Send a CSE (Case Specific Enquiry) using webform.

yes i got email from same address, but in my email i got this

If you do not have a mailing address in Canada or the U.S.A, or if you are unable to submit the required documentation for you or your accompanying family members to the addresses below, please send an email to us at CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca so that we can send you instructions for submitting your documents to a visa office which is the most convenient for you. Please note that our office will not return passports to an address outside North America.

thats why i sent them email to ask for instructions, not sure if i can take this email and submit passport at vfs india
In how many days did you get reply from delhi
