*sigh* hoping this is good news. The snail pace at which NDVO is going, I wasn't expecting anything before 6 months. I think they realised this and decided to process some applications from Ottawa itself. Guessingbestofluck said:Ottawa was open yesterday and that's the reason we guess your application is processed there. Hundreds of Dec and Jan first week applicants got the update. Also somebody got a reply from CIC that file is at Ottawa when asked for UCI number.
