I just wish they would hurry up a bit more, now that I am beyond the 1 year mark. I used the web form to contact LVO and this was their reply:
"Please be advised that your application will soon be sent for background checks. Each case is different, and the length of time required for background checks will vary based on a number of factors including an applicant’s background and history. As these checks are conducted by partner agencies, we unfortunately have no control over how long they take to complete."
So, they have to start the fun part yet : )
