Hi everyone,

For couples going through the London office for PR, please share your experiences! My husband's application has been there for 4 months and we have been waiting for an interview date to be scheduled for 3 months.

Also, has London told anyone (resident of Sweden) that their interview is to be held in Stockhom? -- as this is my case!

Would love to hear about your experience with that office, including your nationalities and places of residence!

Thanks :)

Yes, London does not send anything if your case is going through as normal. You will receive either an email or letter requesting passport but little else.

Hi

Can't comment specifically but the interview can be scheduled in the country of nationality when going through London - I believe it depends on residency status. They do appear to be very slow with scheduling interviews period.

Hi butterfly,

We didn't receive anything confirming that they started processing in London either. I was able to check the status on e-cas after they sent my husband an e-mail requesting a formal interview w/ a file number.

Keep us updated :)
