Guys I don't want to discourage anyone but personaly I think that prejune NDVO applicants may still have to wait a little longer due to the following reasons:
- NDVO have given processing dates to almost all span of prejune applicants (even to the last ones). I don't think they can issue so many MR's/Visas in coming few days at same speed.
- NDVO has replied to the CSQs of few members that the processing of the applications filed before June 2010 "is likely to begin in 2012 but may not be finalized until after 2012"
- NDVO has not so far demanded any document updates from us.... means they seem to have an idea that such information/documents will become old and useless until the cases will actually be processed. So they may have to demand these documents again in any case.
- In case of MI-2 & MI-3 cases, the applicants usually receive MR within a week of their status getting in process, then why there is so much delay in our cases? We too are under so called "fast track" (at least in terms of procedure). e.g. once the passports are requested, then regardless of whether it is MI-1, 2 or 3 case, all get their passports stamped in fairly similar times. Then why at this step "In Process with Date", we are too much delayed for MR
Let me remind you that NDVO did such things in past as well. They got the documents updated (in 2008) from large number of pre MI-1 applicants who applied in 2003/2004. But issued MRs to just a handful of applicants. The rest are still waiting for last 4 years even after updating all their documents.
