Hi mainimehta, would you please post your comments in the following thread. We are in the same boat.

Hi omm, I have see your timelines that you've got ARO but from Sidney, is that right? because we referred to ARO from Buffalo Visa office (will be the 2nd ARO)

Hi dear..

Does everybody receive response letter from Buffalo that Embassy(Buffalo) have received the documents? I send them my application and all documents in July 2009. I used to check status by putting my File no # received from Sydney in April and it used to show status as "Received by Visa Office".
But now it don't show my information even don't accept that file no #. Reason it give is Either my information is incorrect(which is Not, I am sure) OR it will show status of only those whose applications are in-process.

So two question come from this above story 1) Is there any problem If Buffalo Embassy haven't sent me any letter?
2) Does it really shows the status of in-process application where ever it used to show the information with "Received By Visa Office".

Please do guide me and thanks for your valuable time and guidance in advance.

Yes i verified from UPS that buffalo received my application within 6 days. Then after that there is no communication from their side. I did send Buffalo a email last month with the file number i received from CIO. And they replied that your application processing is on time ans there is no need for further communication.

I guessed from your reply, the way you asked, that there is something wrong that i need to check in my processing. Does every one get reply from when some one send document to Buffalo.

Thanks for your Help!!
