Expect a reply after a month or so. These days they are mostly giving a generic response that "Your application is awaiting review and we cannot tell when the review will take place in near term".

Hi @legalfalcon
Maybe you know - is it true that London VO is currently prioritizing the processing of spousal sponsorship applications, putting PNP-O applicants on hold? My pnp-o application was transfered there from Sydney CPC in July (with notes from case processing analyst - "recommended pass") and it seems there is no movement in my status since that time(((

The Minister for Immigration recently announced that they will allocate additional resources to family reunification.

Each visa office has processing priorities. However, no application will be purposely kept on hold. An average application takes 8-9 month to process.
As per IRCC's annual 2019 annual report it takes 8-9 months for an application to process.

How long did it take to process an Express Entry application?
Table 35 displays the time, in months, that IRCC took to process 80% of applications under each program. In 2019, IRCC did not meet the processing standard of finalizing 80% of all applications sourced via Express Entry within six months. The processing time for Express Entry, overall, was eight months. As an alternative measure of processing times, 60% of applications finalized in the 12-month period ending on December 31, 2019, were completed within the six-month service standard.
Table 35: Processing Times for Express Entry applications finalized by year and immigration category, in months
| Program | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canadian Experience Class | 4 | 5 | 7 |
| Federal Skilled Worker | 4 | 6 | 9 |
| Provincial/Territorial Nominee | 6 | 6 | 9 |
| Federal Skilled Trades | 6 | 7 | 12 |
| All Programs | 5 | 5 | 8 |
Data is operational and as such should be considered preliminary and subject to change.
- Processing times refer to the time in which 80% of applications were finalized by IRCC. The processing time is measured from the day a complete application is received until the time a final decision is made by an immigration officer.
