@kwamepipim, I think their first response to you was very quick. You applied on the 7th Dec and by 14th Dec they requested for medicals. That was super fast. Well, what I can say is that, the fact that they requested for your medicals is a good sign that you're a step to getting your visa and that is as long as you pass the medicals. That's what I've read so far from other people's post. So remain calm, pray and wait for good news. Also I personally think they have a huge volume of applications they're processing at the moment hence the delay or probably they have just few staffs working on the applications. I didn't know the whole thing will be quite a process to go through. Lets just be optimistic that all goes well. I submitted my application just recently, 29th Dec and was hoping for an update but after reading other people's post here, lol... 2 months and waiting with no update, it's not a joke... hmmm
