Experts advice needed !!!!
I applied under FSW2014. Couple of days back I received PER email. However, there was no acknowledgment for the Visa office, that has been allocated to my application. I called CIC and they told me that its Abu Dhabi visa office (may be because I applied from Middle east). Whereas as per my nationality it should be London visa office. The lady at CIC told me that this is what is displaying on her system. Furthermore, If I go to the official website of Abu Dhabi visa office , it clearly says that
" Responsible for Permanent Resident Applications from:
(Includes Self-employed, Start-up visa, Quebec-selected skilled worker, PNP and family sponsorship)
Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Yemen
NOTE: For all federal economic immigration, see London "

Furthermore, I was going through the old posts ... Many applicants who were assigned Abu Dhabi visa office ... were irritated with the long and tiring processing times taken by Abu Dhabi visa office people ... I am also a bit worried due to this factor ... Please advice me that:
1) Should I call CIC and ask them to change my visa office as per my nationality i.e. London VO ( as the lady on the call told me that my application has not yet transferred to Abu Dhabi visa office) OR Should I leave my case as it is ? ? ?
Please also advice , if there are people in the forum who gone through the same phase with the Abu Dhabi visa office and found it normal ?
Note: When I applied, In the updated form i.e. Generic form ... the option for selecting the visa office was not present , so I had no option to write the Visa office by myself !
