My timeline:
App received 12th March, AOR1 24th April, SA 29th April, 2 ghost updates after that but no real update thereafter

We are around the same time line March 22 received
That’s weird. Nairobi VO don’t usually send out AOR2 letter, rather update the ECAS and add line 2. Every officer is different . Hope everything goes well for you !
never received the aor2 letter either. nairobi office is very slow compared to other locations.
They don’t send no AOR2 letter. Line 2 “ we started processing your application on so and so date “ indicates an AOR2. Yes they are slower unfortunately due to them being responsible for several countries as well. It looks like they are picking up some speed though

Hi Guys
My eCAS shows line 2 on PA side : we started processing your application on 29th june.
Without any transfer to any visa office?
I already did biometrics.
Any ideas guys?

Congratulations on the PPR. Glad there is movement again.
Check your sponsor approval letter for Visa Office information. That comes through either Gckey, email of PA/Representative or snail mail. Only visa office process principal applicant applications .
I checked everywhere
eCAS says on sponsor side : decision made
But we never got a sponsor approval letter
Got medical exam request today.
