Dear Jody ,
My name is Rohit and I have also done the same . I got my CSQ from Délegation Genéral De Québec à New York last June 2011 and Have applied at NEw Delhi. Actually, I first applied to Buffalo office , but they returned my application in October , because the time line of 3 months on money order expired when they opened my application in October.. Hence , they returned everything. At that time New Delhi visa office was showing processing time of 3 months , so I thought of applying to NDVO. NDVO received my application on Novemebr 21, 2011, but I did not receive any letter on my Address in India . I am a student in USA. SO later on they told me that they already send me request for medical and passport , but since I have not received it , they changed my mailing address to that of USA and after a long time, I received my medical instructions on April 27, 2012. So then I did my medical exams, which were done at Houston , send to Ottawa Regional Medical office , from where were transferred to NDVO. NDVO have received them too... Now I am waiting on my next step .. I have been told from NDVO that they have received all my documents and it awaits a review from visa officer.
My CAS status changed last week from Application Received to In Process on June 9, 2012.
We received your application for permanent residence on November 21, 2011.
We started processing your application on June 7, 2012.
Medical results have been received.
Can you or anyone comment , how long does it gonna take before they request for my passport..?
I have not submitted them my passport as in last letter they did not ask me too, plus its gonna be real difficult to stay in USA without passport and Govt of India , does not allow sending of Passport via post ?
Thanks in advance !!
Rohit
