Hi Shamsia, The reason I am asking is I recieved my approval letter, but currently e-case is showing file was recieved on July 15 and still in process. just wondering if it is normal. I understood they update the status on e-case every tuesday.
Dont worry too much about ecas. It's certainly not reliable. There have been instances where people were granted the visa and it still showed "in process" ;D

We applied on 30th June & it still says Application Recieved :D

Yeah because they might be working so quick on your application that they don't find time to update it. :)
But in ISB case they update once and then sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep ::) :p

Also, in your approval email letter, did they mention when your application was transfered to visa office abroad? because mine does not mention about date.

Nope it doesnt. You get a separate letter from New Delhi called the AOR (Acknowledgement of Reciept) stating that they received your application and are working on your file.

I heard now they don't send AOR anymore. They just ask for your passport and start BC.

It all depends from case to case. Sometimes they do, sometimes they dont. But yes, New Delhi is known to send for PPRs early on & then start working on the file.
