i have studied a researched about lot of cases of applicants from Pakistan from 2011 to date ...... and 60 to 80 percent cases are pending... most are stuck at medical stage as medicals are done and no request for PCC or RPRF .... some applicants have paid RPRF and submitted PCC but they still are waiting for passport request and wait period is more than 1.5 years. i personally know many applicants from this forum and in my friends circle who are stuck at the last stage for last 2 years and there is no communication from LVO.
i believe that this is case of complete discrimination for the applicants from Pakistan by the LVO. some people say that this is not the case but if u randomly pick 10 cases you find the same what i said above. lets hope for the best and hope this year bring good news for long awaiting applicants ....
I would like to share my experience. I have been studying and following forums since 2012, when the first time I decided to immigrate. later on due to different problems and circumstances I wasn't able to apply until 2013. I got late with my HOT noc and file was sent back, then in 2014 Alhamdulillah I got through.
what I noticed is, those all applicants who have applied on their own are facing these difficulties.
those who applied through good reputed immigration consultants they don't face these difficulties. yes there can be some % of them which is less than 5% I believe. not that case which u mentioned. now I don't know what it has to do with applying through consultant as CIC website says there is no need to apply through consultants. but the fact remains same at least for Pakistani applicants, those who applied through consultants got visa sooner and smoothly than those who applied on their own.
THERE ARE ONLY FIVE 5 authorized immigration consultants in Pakistan which are recognized by CIC, ICCRC, CAPIC, CBSA, HRSDC, IRPA, CSIC and RCIC.
so people applying through these FIVE 5 only get their cases easily and quickly than those who apply on their own or other remaining fraud and crook consultants.
