Wow that is indeed sad, I cannot even imagine what you are going through but don't worry, it will end soon with PPR. But why would London abandon your file for that long, was your file rerouted through another Visa Office? Just cannot imagine why London would ignore a file for that long
london is my primary office. ordered notes 3 times. all are clean. its my bad luck. officers laziness and then again my bad luck.

Guys, I have a confusion. I was requested by LVO to provide bio pages for primary applicant and for all dependents. I provided them with the front pages which has BIO and country of origin information. Would it be okay or was I supposed to provide the scan pages of visa pages as well? I had already provided the complete scanned passport while submitting my application.

Is it a mistake? I know many other forum members had been requested for similar information. Please confim if you guys had only uploaded the Bio pages ?

if you are not happy with the slow pace of London processing application you can also go on their twitter handle because I don't believe this will change this process is very discouraging.

Good to hear that the document can be obtained although sad that it is costly, I understand and thanks for sharing I really don't know what is happening to London VO because even if they give out 3 ppr a day at least their will be some progress but the fact that in a whole week no PPR from London it is very sad and discouraging. A lot of files get transferred to London and the file will not be touched for more than 3monts when most of the files transferred has passed the initial Eligibilty, Criminality and medical is just for an officer to review what the case analyst has done but no they keep the files for another 3- 5 months untouched.
@Jag13 does an application definitely pass the initial eligibility and criminality before being moved to a visa office?

Hi @The Robust
It was my husband's PCC. We had not submitted it initially. We submitted the receipt and a letter explaining that we are facing delays in obtaining the PCC.
what is your app status NA2 or Ip2 ?

Yes they do all that before the file is transferred at least in my case all was done before the file was transferred to London as you can see in my previous post Eligibility said MET not recommended pass. my next due date was 2017/09/01 but I guess nothing has happened

London vo is known for holding files for a longtime I suspect it is kind of a holding center I maybe wrong but if you are from or live in the UK your application will be processed fast most times look at the tracker for London VO and you will see what am talking about they are some weeks that no PPR is sent out from London VO
For those who passed medicals in a month or less and their files have been moved to London may be in for a long wait (LONDON STYLE) which is very sad
