Hi Blackwood...

Same thing with our application through Sydney VO.

They just requested to confirm that passport details did not change. We both have "Decision Made" in our respective boxes on ECAS.

Are we at the passport request phase even though the VO asked to confirm passport details? Are we nearing the end of the road?

Cheers....

Sorry,

They just requested that I confirm that my passport hasn't changed .. I was required to confirm that its still the same and complete Apendix B: which details my address and dispatch details.

Is that more like the normal process ?

Lucky you guys who are applying from Australia. Already October applicants have Decision Made there?
India's visa office has been processing May applications for the last 3 months!!! And there are still about 50 to 70 applicants from 2012 and Jan-April 2013 still waiting with application received or In process or interview recommended. So frustrated now wondering when they will start June and July :( :( :(

Stay strong. You'll get there soon... :)

Thanks BubbOZ. Time seems to be flying by but then it doesn't. Thanks for the encouragement. I have a feeling that the New Delhi visa office will start the June applicants in February, so it is not that far yet :)

Good luck to you too.

Hey guys... my entry isn't actually even on the spreadsheet, but I have good news to report... just checked ECAS for the billionth time and it says.... DECISION MADE! yippee! Well, I'm assuming it's good news because we haven't heard anything otherwise. I'm right, right? They can't just randomly decide to deny you?

It says they started processing our application on January 17. Now we wait for the next steps.

For info, my timeline is as follows:
App received in Missaussaga: July 9, 2013
Sponsorship approval: Aug 11, 2013
Medicals done in April, 2013 and up on the system right away
Never went "in process"
Decision made Jan 21, 2013
No request for interview... passport exempt.
