Dear Mate

File will be reviewed by VO , and will give go ahead for next step.
This is typical reply from LVO that almost every applicant gets

Stay Blessed

Yes Bro, but usually this response is send before medicals, mine medical is done. i am wondering are they going to do background check or they are reviewing file for PPR-2 (which is now taking approx. 90 -120 days for LVO)

 

[rq1987]

Does anybody have any idea how much time on average is LVO taking to send MR+RPRF request?

@Saeed bhai good to see you after a long time. Have you landed?

 

[Rai Mazhar Farid Jami]

Who is the most efficient VO ? Those who have already passed MR stage can better predict, can you please share your experience.

Of course it depends upon individual applicants circumstances as well but atleast trend can give direction.

 

[Xavier Sharma]

Thanks Xavier, I think LVO has picked up the pace now.
Only few Visa officers are a bit slow I gues..

Wish you all the best in a speedy process.

I hope you are right - and if you are I will buy you a drink when we reach Canada!

 

[faraz999]

U will receive the medical request form for whole family in next email
U can take appointment by calling IOM Pakistan call center (but make sure u call early morning) they will give u the appointment date and time.
Make sure u have polio certificate with u when u go for medicals
Make a new entry in ss ur older one will be deleted automatically

1st answer..! You have to call IOM call center in Islamabad ..! they will give you a date of your medical appointment in Karachi ..! you must be with your passport when u call the call center officer ..! usually they picked phone calls for appointment in morning after 8 am.

2nd answer..! You will receive a medical form tomorrow or day after tomorrow so just be calm and there is only 1 Help line number which is answered only from Islamabad

3rd answer..! u can download a latest version of your information form so u will fill that form according to present..! it is called updated
Best of luck

Hi Forum,

My time Line is:

App Received: 22 Oct 2014
PER Issued: 22 Jan 2015
VO: London
AOR: NONE

My question is regarding Schedule A Background / Declaration form. I spent 3-4 years in UK. I did My Masters from there. I also visted Europe twice. I left UK in Jan 2009 and my visa work permit expired in JAN 2010. So i didn't over stayed. After that i didn't go back to UK. I applied for Visit visa for UK in 2012 which was refused. Similarly I applied for Danish GReen Card Scheme in 2009 which also resulted in Rejection. Mistakenly, while filling the background form I forgot to mention my rejections. What should I do now? Will it make any impact on decision? Visa rejections or NOT mentioning then in background form.....which will more affect my application. If Its a serious issue How can I update this information? How can I contact my Visa Office or Visa officer as my visa office is London which don't even issues AOR. All your help and time for my query will be appreciated.

Regards

Yes thats quite serious mistake si before VO finds it out raise a case specific enquiry to LVO withur details and appologize for mistake and request to upate your backgroud declaration form. They will ask you to mail hard copies so u need to send them to London. Best of luck and do it as soon as possible

Hi everyone! Are there other Quebec applicants here that have their permanent residence application processed at visa office in London?

 

[maplezone]

I recently renewed my passport as it got damaged ... I also received a PER email ... So now how should I inform CIC people about this new passport ? I called CIC , they told me my file will go to LVO ... When do we receive an AOR email from LVO , once the application has been dispatched from CIO ...
