Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

True.. so travel has been ruled out.. right now the only thing i can think of is that there could be a delay in sharing of info from pak end..try looking up along those lines.

Yeah you are rite may be..
But the fact is there are many applicants who are waiting for security clearance despite the fact they havent been part of any govt organization.. Secondly there are many experiences of interview applicants. whenever they were told on sight about security checks delay, its been mentioned that your travel history is extensive.. In my opinion travel history is the main concern for security agencies rather than employment in govt organizations.. I havent been outside of my country ever.

I got following reply from MP... I dnt knw whether to take it positive or negative

"I called IRCC and they are still on the security check. We don't know how long that will take because external partners are used to verify information, and IRCC can only continue their work on the file when those partners get back to them. The good news is that it could finish at any time, meaning it could be soon (but I don't know and can't predict), and that we are still within normal processing times for these sorts of cases. We would come to the end of the expected window in mid-September of this year (but it could finish before then). I hope this information is helpful to you. I will continue to follow-up on this."
So the MP is telling you that Pakistan's processing time of 21 months applies to you, and why is that? This is outrageous.

All my prayers for all of you 2015 applicants who are still waiting! May your apps get approved asap.

Does the background check starts after decision made?
Should be before DM ofcourse. DM & PPR are the last steps.

What is the status of your BGC?

Most of us here applied before Dec 7, 2016. If you look at your case, your 21 months ends in Sep 2017 which is the time your MP thinks your case will be finalised.

Whereas we know that most cases (excluding interview cases) get processed within 12 months by LVO.

What is IRCC playing at? Is there no check and balance at what LVO has been doing since Jan 2017?

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

if mycic says "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.", does that mean my review of eligibility is in progress? or will it explicitly say, "in progress"?

LVO usually does not acknowledge when it receives your docs.

Its been 10 months since u submitted ur application. so better involve mp to take Status update of your case, and meanwhile order notes as soon as possible (if mp doesnt provide tangible info, you will be able to see the progress of your case via gcms notes).
