Hello Everyone,

I will appreciate your time with the following:

1-Can you please guide me that what is the average processing time (since 2019 and onwards) for Outland Spousal Application from Pakistan Office?

2-I also has the option of applying for the Inland application but not sure which would be the faster processing in terms of time. I also need to travel outside Canada during application processing.

Please help me with making a decision. Thanks

You are absolutely right, I haven't seen anyone who received any update from LVO after mid March
After completion, one year of my wife's application, not sure it is a generic update or really something on it.

"Your application is taking us longer than usual to process.

About 20% of our applications are more complex to process. They take us longer due to things like how easily we can verify information, how well and how quickly you answer our requests and whether the application is complete.

If you aren't seeing updates, contact us using this Web form. Make sure you read your messages and take action when we ask you to. "

I have a question for the people whose file was transferred to LVO in January 2020.
My file was transferred to LVO on January 13th,2020 and till now I had not received Aor2.I applied for GCMS notes on 2nd April 2020, and today I received the notes.
I am really shocked that all the updates are on the notes till January 12th when the file was in sydney. There is nothing in the notes what has been happening after the file was transferred to LVO on January 13th. The status says that file is in transition.
How is it possible that even after 100 days of transferring file,it is not reached to London yet?
Anyone going through the same situation?
Regards!

They send the file to LVO electronically. And it has arrived there. However until a visa officer opens up your application it will say in transit. Next step is AOR2 your ecas will update to "we started processing". And 4-5 months later you will get ppr inshallah. Same boat as me. LVO is going really slow but inshallah they will pick up.as London is finally easing restrictions. Let's all pray they will allow offices to re open!

Jazak Allah Khair for your precious time.
So you meant that another 4- 5 months after Aor2? Though I had been waiting for Aor2 since January 13,2020 when the file was transferred to LVO. My timeline says 77% completed but according to GCMS notes,the file looks done only 25%.

You have been waiting for it since Jan 13. And your almost done. Only 2 more steps eligiblity and they will do final background check.. which doesn't take that long. I have seen ppl get ppr after 2 month of aor2. You are 80-85% complete to be honest. Just pray this coronavirus goes fast
