London Visa Office, second-half-of-June applicant here (not in the spreadsheet). We are very happy to share that we've just received the Passport Request letter. The online status changed to Decision Made. It looks like we're nearing the end of the process. (8.5 months from application submitted to "Decision made").

All of you have been great in sharing your progress here. We've followed you anonymously and felt your joys and impatience every step of the way. Thank you for sharing. This post is our way of giving back.

Other info:
AOR: end of July
Schedule A / Medical: first week August
Sponsor Approval: September 2017
Additional documents: Feb 2018
Decision Made: the first week of March 2018

We have always felt IRCC was working on our application. Based on experiences of others around us, we expected eight months for the total process. Our file took slightly longer because of the request for additional documents. That's ok. We are here now.
what additional document was requested?

AOR= Acknowledgement of Receipt
DM=Decision Made
SA=Sponsorship Approval
PPR = Passport Request
NDVO=New Delhi Visa Office
LVO= London Visa Office (and so on)

Thats all i can think of now.

Thanks a lot

AOR1 is normally 45 days currently, In June 2017 it was appx 30-35 days. That is AOR1 from CPC-M (Case Processing Centre - Mississauga).

Depending on your VO (Visa Office) AOR2 that your VO sends can vary from not being sent at all to 5 months from date of receipt of application.


Thanks a lot

I'm not sure, but here's what I would do: write a cover letter saying something like, "As requested, enclosed are two PCCs from xxx and yyy." And then include both PCCs in one file. Good luck!
