I don't understand your post @db5234, are you saying that Accra is no longer processing parent sponsorship? If so, then who is? Also, are you saying they are issuing a lot of confirmation of PRs?

Yes they are issuing a lot of PPR this week in general for other groups but I haven’t heard from the parent sponsorship. So I wonder if they are even thinking of processing our group

But they have always been issuing PRs from other classes with speed. With Parent PRs, they seem to drag their feet. I am not sure why. I hope they move things quickly. My situation is 9 months after the processing time. I wonder if anyone has reached out to them and got an answer, and can share an email address that works. Is anyone else past the normal 2 years processing time?

I think most people waiting here have passed the normal processing time including me. I sent Accra a message yesterday and will update you when I hear anything back.

Okay. I also sent a request with their web form. I hear that there's another email address that people make requests to when the processing time has passed. Does anyone know?

So this is my first post even though I have been using this forum since 2017. I feel the need to reply cause I think we are all in the same mess and need to encourage each other.

I'm a June 2019 PGP applicant and I have not heard any update from Accra. I did apply for the GCMS notes on Jan 7th and still waiting. I then sent a webform enquiry on Jan 16th SURPRISING I got a reply on Jan 17th that my app was in queue. (Not helpful since I already knew it was in queue...lol)

I think we should do a petition to this account. Totally unacceptable. Other VOs already giving visas for 2020 batch.

2019 PGP just receiving medicals in Dec 2021? Why is Accra Visa Office like this? 2020 PGP already getting visas in other Visa Offices. This is unacceptable!
I'm June 14th 2019. Still waiting on any updates from Accra... No medicals or PCC done yet...

This is a 2020 applicant timeline....And lots more like that in other VO

Application Received 0129
Requested Document 0209
Start Processing 0806
Bio Request 0827
Medical Request 0903
Additional Medical Request 0922
Additional Medical Check Done 1210
MER (Medical Exam Received) 01/18/2022
pre-arrival letter 01/28/2022
DM 02/02/2022
PR portal email 02/02/2022

This is totally unacceptable and should be flagged. I think we should all start sending our MLA emails about this rather unique situation of Accra that should be looked into.

What/who is MLA?

Yes there are alot like that. I contacted my MP(August 2021) but I don't have alot of faith in them since they somewhat ignored me till this year Jan2022 when I recontacted them ( So in totally I have contacted them 3 times Aug 21, Oct 21 and Jan 22). I have been asked to wait for 6weeks to see if ACCRA gets intouch, I am waiting, it will be 6 weeks end of Feb. I'm also opened to any ideas of bringing this to the necessary attention but I don't really know how.
I have considered writing a letter to the minister with data from other VLO but I'm giving my MP some time.

It's extremely painful to see people after me especially 2020 apps already having their parents settled ...

I am writing a letter to the minister (Sean Fraser) if all of us can send them an email. Something will be done
