Let's hope they're at it for everyone not just one or two people!

When was their second line update and AOR? I haven't had time to join the Chinese forum but I plan to.

I hope so too, especially that HKVO used to be the fastest
I think now it may take more than 3 months between AOR and MR
The case in the Chinese forum was received on 6/24 , AOR on 11/06/2014 , MR on 3/7/2015 , it may got delayed because of Xmas, New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year holidays

Thanks for sharing...I am June 26. Hope I can receive MR soon. But I heard from my friend that before MR, HKVO will request for PCC first. is that true?

I got MR and PCC request atthe same time. I think that's how it is for most people.

great! that can save some time then!

Just check, still no second line. But I guess their MR / PCC will be a week faster than second line update. Let's pray and see!~

Keeping checking! Many June applicants have started to see 2nd line update. Your turn might just be right around the corner!

You're supposed to inform the VO of things like this but I'd wait for AOR so you can be sure your application was sent to HKVO and so you can refer to whatever instructions they may send you. Good luck.

I am confident that HKVO will meet their 11 months processing target which means that all May applicants should have their visa by end of April, all June applicants by end of May, all July applicants by end of June and so on.

They had a quick start last year and processed quite a number of applications by end of 2014, because HKVO was still behind their overall visa target for 2014. Now, with the start of this year they seemed to have taken a break of a few months to focus on the investor visa processing which was at its peak in the beginning of this year and now their focus will be back on FSW to meet their processing target.
