Hello everyone. Can someone please tell me at what stage FSW-O applications are sent to the London VO? I live in UAE; am Indian and recently learnt that my application is at the LVO. At what stage is an application sent to a VO? Will it then be forwarded to the local Abu Dhabi/ New Delhi VO? or will the London VO do the final review? I'm just trying to figure out what steps still remain. Thank you.
My 2cents: London would be the primary office but the processing of the application will begin at the centralized intake office in Canada. The fact that you live in UAE doesn't mean it would be processed in UAE. Applications are sometimes transferred to a different VO due to workload distribution. After Central Intake office completes the eligibility test and security test, it would then be transferred back to your primary office - London where they would conclude on your application. You would then be told to send your PPR to the closest VO where you reside which would be Abu Dhabi VO in your case.
