All,
Just an update from me:
After my I got my PPR issued last Friday, I sent in the required documents (photocopy of my passport, photos and the required form) on Monday (arrived on Tuesday), and have just got a message through to my CIC account saying that the COPR is now in the post and my application has now been finalised. Exactly 6 months to the day after my AOR!
Just wanted to let everyone know that the LVO is really efficient and friendly (very responsive to emails as well). Hope this offers a 'ray of hope' for those who are still waiting for their PPRs and will go through London (likely the UK FSW-O applicants and perhaps some others). Keep the faith - post your PPR it seems to move quite quickly.
Cheers.
