Thank you UReginahopeful, I have also googled it earlier. Kinda odd, I didn't expect my application to be sent to OSC - Operations Support Centre. I thought it would be sent to Singapore VO since I'm from Singapore. Also based on IRCC's website, OSC doesn't seem to process PR applications...

I think it's a good thing then since they won't have any applications piled up, so they will work on your file faster. I see they are not opened to the public, otherwise, I would have gone to take a peek for you. I'm from Ottawa and live in Ottawa. May be Singapore VO already has a lot to deal with right now, so they are redistributing the applications.

Is London VO's processing time really so slow? What's usually the timeline after receiving SA?
They are the slowest! People are still waiting since May 2019 for PPR. Their process takes 15 months to 24 months, but mostly at the middle, so around 18 months. Someone from the London thread got PPR yesterday, and the person submitted in 2017.

Oh my goodness that is just insane. Glad that your partner's TRV got approved, at least no need to do LDR while waiting.

Yes, I am glad but we will still do LDR though. He will only be visiting me when he has leave from work and go back. His profession needs a licence to practice in Canada and he needs his PR to write the licensing exams, so we are still in a long road to closing the distance. So the earlier we get the PR, the earlier we can close the distance. But I am grateful he can be visiting me until then :)

I know the pain of LDR. I was in a LDR with my husband close to 2 years with the dreadful 15 hours time difference. It's a long road, no doubt, but so far it's been really smooth for you so keep positive and best of luck to you! :) :)

My eCAS is showing "Decision Made" today. Didn't receive any email. Nothing shown if I click the decision made link.
Anyone have the same issue?
