Dear Shahji,

I am 2013 FSW applicant and applied in August 2013 from Abu Dhabi. I have received PER from CIO on November 14th, 2013 and my file has been transfered to London Visa Office. FSW 2013 applicant are being processed quite faster; few have already got PR in less than 6 months from other Visa Offices. London Visa Office hasn't started to send MRs to 2013 FSW applicants registered in this forum but we are expecting it will happen in couple of weeks time as New Dehli Visa Office has already started.

I can see from your post that you sent your passport from Abu Dhabi to London for PR visa stamping. Can you please share which courier company did you use and how was your experience with that courier? Have you assigned the same courier company to pick-up the passport from the London Visa office? Are you single applicant or have family? In case of family, have you sent all passport in one package or separate package of each passport? Would you like to share cost/passport or cost/package?
Yeah - a couple of weeks time for MR. I'm not going to hold my breath.

I'd say, clear back log of thousands of applicants from previous years. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2013/04/23/canada-citizenship-application_n_3137260.html

Then move office. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/canada-sells-high-commission-building-in-london/article15654917/

Then maybe start to process 2013 applicants.

Only way I can see to help the situation is to email the minister to try and push him to resolve the possible delay.

Highly appreciated shahji for your prompt reply.

I learned from other forum members of FSW 2013 thread that few visa offices such as CPP-O advises all applicants to make arrangements for the passport pick-up after visa stamping. It is good news that applicant doesn't need to make the arrangement for the passport pick-up from London Visa Office after the visa stamping. I will be very thankful to you can guide me for the following queries:

1. Does London Visa Office clearly mention in PPR email that they are responsible for returning the passport to the applicants at their doorsteps? Yes
2. In case of Yes for query no 1, does London Visa Office asks for the address to deliver the passports or they just deliver on the applicant's address available in their database? Yes they ask for a self address envelop.
3. I am asking the query no. 2 because I had given my residential address without any P.O Box. No in the main application. I was planning to change my address by giving P.O. Box. no of my company because I came to know CIC doesn't send any letter/package through courier but through regular mail. What do you suggest, should I update my address by giving P.O. Box no of my company by replacing my residential address? In that case, they might not be able to send anything through courier.

Now a days LVO send most correspondence via e-mail, but it is always good to update your address where you can receive normal mail in P.O.Box and courier. if you want to give your company address give full company address like office / unit no., building name/land mark, street name/no. etc + P.O.Box number, so you can receive both courier and normal mail.

Dear tashford,

I have read your most of the posts in different threads. You believe that LVO is going to complete the process in 25 months.

It is true that there is huge backlog of applications at LVO and they are working on older applications at the moment. But remember that NDVO has also huge backlog but they have started processing FSW 2013 applications without clearing the whole backlog. Same is the case with other Visa Offices; they have small or huge backlogs but they have started processing FSW 2013 applications without clearing backlogs. Therefore, don't worry, LVO will start processing FSW 2013 applications sooner or later without clearing the whole backlog.

As far as moving of the office is concerned, first of all, processing of FSW 2013 is not coupled with the movement of the LVO building. Whenever they have plan to move, they will move and I believe it won't delay the processing of applications in weeks rather only very few days may be. Therefore, don't take tension for the LVO building being sold out and their plan to move to other building.

Sending email or tweet to Minister is not a bad idea but remember that it is quite possible that it may not effect the processing plans of LVO and FSW 2013 applications. But I still believe that they are going to process the application and issue the PR visa in maximum one year time.

Dear shahji,

How did you pay RPRF and what was the proof of RPRF sent to LVO?
I paid RPRF through demand draft (DD) issued by my Bank (HSBC). There is no proof, i just sent the DD to LVO with a cover letter mentioning the purpose and number of DD with my name and file number written on the back of DD.
