Hello there hope everyone be fine.

I am from Afghanistan and I submitted my Spouse Sponsorship application from Pakistan on 7th of May 2023, after 10 days I received my AOR and on 18th of May 2023 I received the sponsor approval letter, after that 2 days later I received an email they said that we send your application to LVO( London Visa Office) for processing. Now its nearly 2 months that I didnt received any email from them, is there anyone who knows what is next and why it took so long? Because I know some of my relatives that their whole processimg time was 3 to 4 month from here (Pakistan) and 2 of my relatives applied from Iran their application took exact 3 month and they went to canada in 3 months after submitting.
So is there anyone who know why mine is taking so long because lots of application took max 3 to 4 months?!

London office is slow.

I got my AOR, SA and BIL all at the same time about a month after I submitted my application. I am now more than 5 months in with no medical request or updates (just ghost updates). I even ordered GCMS notes and they have yet to start my medical and security checks; only the biometrics were received and showing completed on my tracker. Right now they are info sharing with USA. Australia info sharing is completed.

I have reviewed many LVO timelines and they are mostly 11 months or more… some lucky people were approved within 8-9 months (last year and this year).

Hopefully you get an update soon but expect a long process for your application from this VO. Your relatives were fairly lucky to have their applications completed quickly as this is not normal at all. In fact, it takes on average 6-8 months for the fast VO’s like NDVO.

Actually if PA is from Afghanistan, the application is expedited on compassionate grounds. That is why the relatives got it in 3 or 4 months, now i am not sure if they are still processing them quickly

The Afghan humanitarian program and IRCC’s compassionate grounds timelines appear to have a strict set of criteria that I’m sure OP can confirm with his/her relatives and/or the IRCC website as well.

I get that IRCC’s lack of transparency is causing a lot of panic and frustration among prospective applicants and PA/Sprs but OP has now spammed multiple threads with this same post asking for assistance…
