Each and every application is unique in its appearance and has different stings attached to it, due to which time taken by VO varies. Having said that, I reckon the delay in getting MR is due to security and criminal checks which other Visa offices do after MR where as LVO does it before MR, this based on my observation that time taken by LVO for sending PPR (after MR) is lesser then other Visa offices.

Hi,

I believe that my visa officer is KKB. My experience has been pretty okay so far. I have received prompt responses for all my queries.

I was asked to appear for my interview in Abu Dhabi this month and I am awaiting the next e-mail.

Thanks.

have you raised CSE through LVO email or through CSE link from CIC website ?. if you have mentioned urgent in subjected line then he is bound to reply within two days . anyhow i will suggest better to wait instead , frequent CSE may irritate him . becs we cant understand his nature !....

regarding your first line agreed. every file has its own complexity, and different timeline required by VO to deal with it.
however as per my understanding LVO send MR after eligibility clearance only and in parallel they start Background and security checks. M stuck in background checks since 1.5 years after medicals . so PPR email depends entirely on Background checks . Sometimes background checks result come too early even during MR processing , so that is why few applicants got PPR email the very next week after medicals. Further background checks conducted by third parties for which time limit is beyond the control of LVO. but i believe they are now trying to fix applications within time frame given on their website .
Hope
