I believe so, I think Sydney VO processing all or most applications under PNP stream, and they are just doing the new applications on their MEP, eligibility, etc, and hold others security at the end.Mine is exactly a month after you . security not started . Don't know if they are purposely helding up pnp applications. Haven't heard any pnp approved since long
So that's why we can't see any approval but they are still working.
