I can completely understand your frustration. But here we are trying to help each other instead of arguing.. Its worth to note that at least some of the applicants have some hope of getting visas (uniting with families) sooner, assuming Ottawa is faster. However, even in Ottawa, after medicals files are waiting for almost 6 months. Asking for medicals does not mean issuing visas. As far as I know, Ottawa office is just helping out LVOs by reducing some load. If files had not transferred to Ottawa, we would all have to wait longer at LVO. At least, we should appreciate this step by CIC.
