LONDON Visa Office Applicants....Lets connect here

No, Im FSW outland. Its on my signature. Yes I got the GCMS notes generated on 18 July. Everything looks normal. No Security Screening. I am from Bangladesh but UK resident since 2010.

From your gcms notes, has your file been touched since it got to London VO?

As you have said that the due date mentioned on your notes was 30 July 2017. You should ordered another set of notes to see if there is any progress made by LVO. It's quite annoying but GCMS notes are the only source of credible information. In your notes generated on 18 July did they mentioned anything about A11.2.

Yes A11.2 Met by Agent in CIO.

File was transferred to London VO on 18 May. From that day to 18 July when the notes were generated london didnt touch the file.

Yes its all worth it in the end.

I did order notes and that's how I got to know about the month long due date gaps compared to notes of people i know from Ottawa who had one week gaps. My next due date for officer review is fixed for August 20th as per my notes so I hope something will happen after 20th August. I shall order a second set of notes around 18th August too!

Hi Johnsyk,

Seems like we are in the same boat. I am also based in UAE. My AOR April 27, 2017; medical pass June 23, 2017; ADR not required July 29, 2017; BG: NA.
Was informed that my file was moved to London on July 29 after I sent an email to Ottowa.
Just read the thread. Seems that I should target Oct 27 as the lucky date, if everything goes well.

Hi everyone, I received a request to myCIC account today. I am happy to at least have gotten some communication but the request is strange. They have requested the fingerprints of my 6-year-old child! Sent an email to London VO to ask for clarification.

A set of original fingerprints - Fingerprints to match with RCMP screening - these fingerprints are to be sent to an accredited fingerprint company in Canada for submission to the RCMP's Canadian Criminal Real Time Identification Services (CCRTIS).

Do you have any follow-up on your case? I also have a 6-year-old. What did you do with the fingerprints?

That's quite annoying. Ottawa takes 2-3 weeks to finalise the application after transferred from CIO whereas local visa offices won't touch them for months. I am hoping due date of 30 July mentioned in your notes mean something and you get an update this week.

I have a feeling they would have checked your file on 30th July. The not so good news is that if they did check your file on 30th July, you would have passed eligibility and would have been on IP2 unless they are waiting for your security to clear. If you order another set of notes, you will know what happened on 30th July.

If you ordered notes, you will know the due date - At-least some date to look forward to.

Also sick and tired of LVO. I sent an email since July 21st and i'm yet to get a response from them.

London office sent me an update on July 10th to make payment for my RPRF, upload international passport bio page, height and color eye details for myself and my dependants before August 9th. I upload and made the payment same day - July 10th. It's been quiet since then. My AOR is Feb 1st and it's been a long wait now, over 6 months and 6 days count down now.

The last update on my gcms notes from London office as of requested date 26/06/2017 showed on the note, which was sent to me on July 13th says: "Appears RFV pending RPRF". I believe RFV means Request For Visa. other updates from other visa officers review shows ****Appears to meet requirements*** Outstanding Documents is RPRF. My application was moved to london office on June13th.

Should i send another CSE to them?

Your due date to submit details and fee was 9th August, so I guess they will open your file or send you PPR after 9th. Don't worry its 7th today.

As I said this due date is not relevant. My first gcms note had a due date. Nothing happened on that due date as I can see from my last notes. They take their sweet time.

Hi everyone,

Did someone use the Royal Mail Special Delivery for the return envelope on CoPR from LVO?
I just want to make sure I don't need to put return stamp as they instructed on the PPR letter, wondering they are going to actually pay for the stamp or not.

And any ideas how long does it usually take to receive CoPR?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure they said don't put a stamp on, unless that was for normal envelopes only. But obviously go with your PPR mail if it told you otherwise. For special delivery mine said you have to log the number - sounds like something you do when you pay and validate the envelope no?

Am also at LVO for CoPR. Very keen to know what timescales people have seen or experienced for this after responding to PPR.

Can someone help out?

I pray so...!!! I have seen from posts most people have gotten theirs the due date of the requested document. Thanks
