I am from west Europe still waiting, so I'd don't think that's the problem.
Even Ankara is very slow! It is good someone got PR from this forum finally after 13 months.

Did you receive an email from Vienna that they got your application? And if not...then how did you know it ended up there?
I got an aor saying my application has been transferred to vienna.
Then in march i believe i sent them an email asking about an update on my application and if they have sent any msg just incase i have missed it.
I got a reply back saying my application is under review thats about it.

Wow 1 year and month thats long.
Been 5 months for me since vienna has my application and im going crazy lol.
yes it was a long wait! i have said this many times but i highly reccomend ordering gcms notes. it will tell you what the officer wrote about your case or if they have even opened it in vienna in the first place! i found out in my notes that we are in interview queue and why we needed an interview. i wrote vienna a long email after waiting 5 months since the officer wrote the note, which was a huge regret to wait so long because after 2 days they emailed me back with an intrview date (maybe if i emailed before i wouldnt have waited so long). in the email i wrote how ridiculous it is to wait 5 months for just an interview. when they sent me the email with the interview date they gave me 2 and a half weeks time to actually prepare for it. gcms notes take 30 days to get and if i hadnt got them from before we would have never knew why we were getting interviewed in the first place. not only that but my husbands interview was in a different country and he needed an interpreter that alone was hard to find. having the gcms notes we knew exactly why they wanted the interview and we prepared from before by printing pictures, keeping all conversations instead of deleting them and kept our receipts. gcms notes are only $5.. maybe u dont even need an interview and its just in a queue for passport request!

good luck :)

For us they keep saying they are doing security screen and the check is conducted for IRCC by outside agencies and any delays that may incur in providing input to IRCC is STH over which they have no control! And gcnote does not show anything in front of the security sections as they are all whited out with correction pen. What do you suggest we can do? I think there is definitely sth wrong with Ankara because other offices don't have this long waiting time between agencies and IRCC!!!!!

Why don't you make an excel sheet? You may share it on onedrive and add the link to your signature in the profile. So that we can see how many are left from Vienna. The may/june/july threads are not very active anymore.
