Hi Everyone,
My application is also forwarded in LVO and it was sent last July 31, 2017 and didn't received any news yet. How can we follow up? I (PA) lived in Dubai, UAE while my wife who is the Sponsor lives in Canada. We don't have idea on how we can get updates. Can someone help us? By the way May 23, 3017 applicant here.

You are well within processing times. London VO generally does not respond, from what I have seen when others have tried. You can order GCMS if you wanted, but London is a slower, busy office. We've been there since May and haven't heard anything which is normally. You can check out the spreadsheet to see other timelines. I wouldn't worry too much at this point you're still very early in the process.

The way you get updates (if there are any) is through your MyCIC / GC Key account. But if it only went to London on 31 July, then no surprise you haven't heard anything, London are slow. You may start to wonder around end of November onwards.
