I called CIC and they solved the issue for me.
My file was actually sent to London on May 16th!

Hi Mercy24,

I want to send case specific inquiry to LVO. Can you pls advise email address to whom I have to send case specific inquiry?

My re-medical was done on 12-May and status is still "In-Process". very irritating.!!!

Hey Flx,

What did you submit as more proof? I want to send in more pics and communications as well.
Also where did you send it to?

Thanks!

umm, i applied for notes when my app was 4mo IP & i saw nothing but meds being cleared. like flx says, they dont really touch the file unless its bee like 6-6.5mo IP & then DM is ranging at 7-8mo avg...filed: 20 oct 2015, in process since 29 dec...
no docs request tho:-X :-\same! Flx2015, i dont think never have lived in PK wud be of any concern unless unke peich dheelay han. like who the hell cares!!! *insert Peter Griffin's voice*

concerns/comments:
1. so reading some comments here since i havent been on this forum for weeks, PP are submitted in person? :eek:
idk im getting confused some of u r saying how its a walk-in service or they dont accept mail wth, idk, pls clarify?
2. still no remeds request. id rather get PPR than DM tho...like oct 1 applicant. aint no one got time to waste on waiting another month to get an email for PPR. screw DM phase. :(
RSK saw that you were added to 2016 tab on the spreadsheet. Was it by mistake? You should be under 2015 no?

i don't know why it takes them 30 days just to add a document to my file. what if an officer picks up my file and starts reviewing before the additional docs are added to my file, and then he/she sends me a doc request for the stuff i've already sent? that will be such a mess...
Thanks for letting me know. I'm going to send few docs for my file as well since I don't think I send enough pics *over thinking obviously*
Honestly, there has to be an easier way for all of this.
However, I'm grateful that it's a tedious 7-8 months instead of horrendous 47 months.

dear flx205
It doesn't take them 30 days to add the documents to your file, I sent a document which were added very next day to my file (though i never got reply from them) i found out on GCMS notes.

yeah i'd say go ahead and send it; there's no harm in it. by doing so, you're decreasing the chances of them sending a doc request, which could mean getting a DM/PPR 30 days earlier.

Just sent my stuff too...hopefully, it won't create any confusion at CIC's end!

Are you going to request GCM notes?

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Hi guys

i have question

My spouse is in USA and i am sponsoring her in Canada

I just received info that for PCC from Pakistan, Applicant should be present in Pakistan.
If this is true then anybody who sponsored her/his spouse while he/she is out of Pakistan, what are you doing for PCC ?

thanks
