Hey there @ateotia ! My AOR is 17th Jan 2018, but no idea how to find out which office it is at - I assume it's in Pretoria as I applied from SA. Do you know how to check? My application is "we are processing your application". Frustratingly slow, or is it just me?

hello there. you can find out what your lvo is by calling cic during normal working hours. even if you have applied from sa it could be that your file processes in ottawa. we have a whatsapp group with folks waiting for processing at pretoria. why dont you join it https://chat.whatsapp.com/Gs1osfB5Vb4EQqrF00nfeq

Hi. I have applied for FSW Outland through Express Entry with AOR February 21, 2019. I was informed my application is being processed at the Pretoria office with my eligibility and background still in progress. Should I be concerned. Is Pretoria slow?
