Yea CPC-M to MVO is slow but direct MVO is fast. September has been a shit show with MVO regardless though.
September has been very slow, maybe Manila VO are not giving out PPR's until further notice from Canada. I remember when my partner PA went for her biometrics at VFS Cebu back in June, the girl told her that applications in 2109 are going much faster but I guess everything stopped for the moment... I truly think that the upcoming elections have slowed things down dramatically, this would mean October will be brutal.
