Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

[sam_1985]

Yup, It's a lottery! I have the same feeling, I have heard nothing since SA so you worry that they want something else and you didn't get asked!

Apparently it depends on the agent with the ECAS update, I understand it can sometimes be quite behind what is actually going on with your application. That's what I'm hoping with mine and Taffy7 and the others from May/June/July 2014 anyway.

Like you say, it's frustrating when there seems to be no reason why some get processed in a few months, while others like Mec had to wait 15 months! All we can do is wait, and try not to check ECAS everyday..... good luck with that!!

This is beyond frustrating because of the lack of consistency....someone whose application was received at CPC-Mississauga on 22-September-14 then transferred to LVO on 03-Nov-14 got DM yesterday - very happy for them (check the spreadsheet)... Trying to find logic in this process seems just impossible!

Hi I'm one of July applicants still waiting More frustrating is for me that I could send mine to Warsow as I'm Polish cityzen, the reason why mine is in London is that we were living in Ireland for last 9 years but how would we know back then it would take such a long time
Good luck everyone its getting close anyway

We don't have much choice where our application gets sent .Back in the day LOL when we sent our application you could write where you wanted your application to be processed, then they changed it . You no longer have an option or a box to say where you want it sent.

I wouldn't be surprised Looks like there was pretty much no applicants in July that went to London, and not many in Aug.

I've just completely lost hope and am so jaded with this whole process now. It's a hundred times worse than I ever thought it would be and the London visa office is a complete sham.

I saw that one also... but based on the timeline figured it probably went to Ottawa, and tried not to let it bother me too much. Easier said than done though!

Yes...I would agree; the timing is more aligned with Ottawa rather than LVO.

My hopes have been crushed so bad that we are planning our next visit for Christmas that's how far i feel i will be waiting.My hubbie won't come unless we know for sure. I don't blame him .We would have to give up so much in the U.K and him not working will drive him nuts. My self on the other hand is ready to adopt a dog for company lol .
