    Thought I'd revive this thread and see how Buffalo people were doing. We still haven't heard anything, and our file went from Sydney to Buffalo in March. How about you folks? How are you faring?

    Applied in January, Sent from Sydney to Buffalo in March, nothing since.

    Thank you so much! Now, is the AOR the letter that comes from Sydney telling you your file is being transferred, or is that something else? I want to do what you're doing, and add my status to my name on the forum. That's really helpful. Cheers, Ceallaigh
