Hi Phoem,
I have approximately the same timeline.
Received my first AOR in Jan, 2013.
In mid of July they had asked for additional documents as well as updated my status to 'IN PROCESS'.
So, waiting for the next step. Don't know whether they will ask for more documents or for MR.
In case of any update, please keep us updated.
I am Ontario Province Nominee.
Good Luck
 
Dear Phoem and masif79,

If you do not mind can you please share you nationality? I am wondering if right now they are processing specific cases only. Infact my AOR is March 21st 2013 and I have not seen any update on my case.

Further I am part of PNP Feb thread as well and there are 4 ADVO applicant but no one got any update.

Regards
Khurram

Dear Khurram,

I am from Pakistan and currently residing in Qatar. I don't think that they will process the cases based on nationality, however, not sure.
Actually the documents which they had requested, were already with the application kit. I don't know why they ask to resend the same documents 2-3 times.

Regards,
Asif
 
Dear lemans,

Status is "application received on 14 Feb 2013".

Dear Asif,

Thanks for quick reply. I m from Dubai n my case is OPNP FSW. What document they have requested? When is your AOR received from CIO?

Regards
Khurram
 
Hi Guys,

It seems to me that the problem is not whether they mention application started or medical request. I think many staff in the embassy can do that. The Main Issue as it appear is that there is no or few diplomats to actually stamp visa on the passport . I might be wrong but a positive outlook is to know if any PPR was made after 26 july 2013. In which case things are moving which is good. If not, well I can not expect anything soon...
 
Hello

some one I know got medical today,

I found they are going by day they receive the applications
 
Hi, lemans!
ADVO received my MR May 2013, almost 3months now but i M expecting delays in visa issuance due to strike issue. Hope it will be fixed soon. :)
