What was the response? Heard that she is fast. Not for me so far.

Her response was very coordinate and succinct which tells she is good at what she does. I was told that my file will be reviewed and she will inform my consultant when it happens. Basically anyone with a consultant cannot contAct the VO direct, it must be done via your consultant or lawyer.

Let's hope she is efficient and straight to the point as I am anticipating as it means she will be quicker with applications.

This is all judgement however,

Dear Forum member,

By the grace of Allah I would like to inform you all that we just received your passports back from Abu Dhabi with the Canadian visa stamped. The forum has been very helpful but I would like to say that what I have understood anything happening at the Visa Office is treated individually for all cases but the forum is a way of knowing the trend.

When we received our passport request our ECAs was not updated and was only showing we started processing your case on 26th March 2015 and even the 3rd line was not updated that we received your medical.

So after we sent our passports the 3rd and 4th line was updated same day.

Also we got to know that if your passport expires before your medical date reaches 1 year your landing date is the date your passport expires not one year from medical date. So in our case we did our medical on 12th April 2015 but our deadline to land is 23rd Jan 2016 not 12 April 2016.

We are happy and hope all others waiting will also will also get the good news very soon.

Ones again thanks and good luck to all.

Congratulations. Did you send a return airwaybill or enclose a C4/C5 envelope? Aramex said return services are no longer available so I put in the self-addressed envelope instead. I'm slightly worried.

Also, when you say you submitted your passport on 3rd, it means it took a little more than 3 weeks to get it back. I'm hoping mine comes back by 20th June. Mine reached the embassy last evening. (Indian passport)

Great Khurram bhai. It seems that LVO is choosing files randomly to process. Very unpredictable visa office.

Have you raised CSE to LVO. If not try it and after their response apply for GCMS Notes.

You may be selected for Interview and as they may not planned the schedule for it, that is why they are nor responding. Any CSE may give you some idea.

Hello people i will be sending proactively my PCC & updated info chart to My Visa officer which is BWJ , my question is do i have to send it physical or a soft copy through ECASE is enough.

I will be doing an upfront medical exam and will send the proof of compilation to the Visa officer. i will attach these as well
