Maylius if you dont mind sharing what kind of questions they asked you in interview. This will definately help the applicants thT are going through the process. Hope you dont mind. From your timeline it seems like it will not be long before you get ppr. The christmas holidays slowed things down for sure but its a new year, new vibe... let it role. :D our passport thas been embassy since november 5 2014. 2 months and counting....

Ashsher yeah the Christmas season has slowed down things but we are hopeful for this year. About the interview question, they were so simple. However some are not really questions, they are more of statements...
Here you go

  • You are [Put the name of applicant eg Maylius].
  • You were born in [put the year eg 2010].
  • Do you know your sponsor?
  • How are you related to your sponsor?
  • Has your sponsor ever visited you?
  • How often does your sponsor send you money for use?
  • How often do you talk to your sponsor
  • I was asked to identify some people in the photos that were submitted by my sponsor.

The VO who interviewed me was so calm and asked me not to fear him, let me just answer what he asks. At the end he asked me whether I had some questions for him. The only question I had was "Have I passed this interview?" And he said "YES" ;D

happy new year..good that you ask that. When i was approved for my PR last november. I emailed them to ask a question about landing. The replied to me within 24 hours. Just make sure you put your application or UCI number as subject in email. Wishing all you nairobi applicants a speedy process in 2015. I was very fortunate enough to have my file processing in under 6 months. The office was moving very fast but i guess holidays slowed it down. Am sure you will all get some good news this month.

Hi, I hope you okay, I have been following up with your posts and its been two months since they requested your passport by now they should have issued the Visa..but Don't panic sometimes it depends on whose handling your file I have heard people wait up to 4 months. but you can send them an email inquiring about your file I'm sure within 14 days they will respond and inform you whats going on.

Hi Jamainsid1910 :D many thqnks for your support. It is quite stressful i must say waiting. We got a request for return coupon and also ppr. After 6 weeks once passport was delivered to embassy we enquired right before xmas holidays and were told that it will be taken out of the que in early jan 2015 for final review. So im keeping my fingers crossed to hear something within 2-3 weeks. Anyone know how long final review takes?? Thanks again for your support. Much much appreciated ;D

YAAAAY, MY PASSPORT HAS BEEN POSTED BACK AND IS ON THE WAY THROUGH DHL..

so, here's what i did guys, my mom called the IMMIGRATION OFFICER on Monday and asked about our visa etc... and he said that our passport in in queue for visa printing and should be printed and posted back by this week itself. Indeed, today i checked my return courier tracking number and saw that the passport has been posted back. Maybe by tomorrow or Monday we'll have our passports in hand.

Here's the direct number in the immigration section (not the receptionist who never pass on the call or give information) : 254-20-366-3400

You can try you to and see what can be done to make your processing faster. be polite and play a bit the emotional card.

Good luck guys ;) Cheers
