Hi all, I read some verses of scripture recently which really struck a cord with me concerning the delay at AVO. I hope this encourages someone. It's a long read tho.

““For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. Now when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.' So they went. Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise. And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle, and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day?' They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.' He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right you will receive.' “So when evening had come, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and give them their wages, beginning with the last to the first.' And when those came who were hired about the eleventh hour, they each received a denarius. But when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise received each a denarius. And when they had received it, they complained against the landowner, saying, ‘These last men have worked only one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.' But he answered one of them and said, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius? Take what is yours and go your way. I wish to give to this last man the same as to you. Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own things? Or is your eye evil because I am good?'”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭20:1-15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
http://bible.com/114/mat.20.1-15.nkjv

When all is said and done the "koko" is for us to be established and successful in Canada. God is the one who is able to settle us in Canada, Even though it seems we have experienced some delays, when we move there He is able to make us at par with those who have gone before us. He is able to bless us such that after just one year people will be saying are you sure you just spent only one year in Canada and you are already on this level. Personally I believe the delay was used by God for my family to help us be better prepared, Although it wasn't funny at the time.As the scripture says He That will come will come, though it tarries, it will not be late.

I pray today that God will move AVO to remember and work speedily on all pending fsw2014 files. Whatever stages the files are, they will be remembered for good in Jesus name . The hearts of kings are in His hands.
Amen. Thank you for these words of encouragement. The waiting will work for the good of my family. Congrats on your Visa.

As good as this idea is ,I think it's actually not necessary,am sure the visa office would pick up steam when they are ready ,it dint take any form of prompting before we were processed to this stage and any pushy move might just have a negative effect , pls let's keep to the spirit of this forum and be patient . However the kind cold wey dey canada now no be joke ooo , so let's asume we are on winter break .i pray we all will have our coprs b4 the end of January . Someone also told me that the visa office is very mindful of the 2014 ministerial instructions that specifies one year and that if your application is still within that time one should avoid sending messages requesting status updates ,as this might impact negatively on your processing .also to note this visa officers are human begins with feelings ,they also keep track of this thread. This info is from someone who (knows ).

The due date is usually one year from the date your file was transferred to AVO. Mine is 24 February 2016.

Oh I see. Nice. I do not even know when my file was transferred as I only have 3 lines in ECAS. Though my 2nd line says 'We started processing your application on 17 December 2014'. Applied for GCMS on November 15 but awaiting the feedback.

Popsicle, good one. Very inspiring. Most certainly, He who has begun a good work in us will perfect until the day of Christ. It is well. It must surely come to pass in Jesus name, amen.
