no, my profile was still NA, and was saying documents required (even though i submitted)
im assuming until someone actually opens my profile again - the status will remain the same.
Yeah I'm worried it will be like 2 months till they open the files again

@hb_rashidy and @rkeys have you guys ordered GCMS? Whats taking so long? Security Screening?
Yes, I received my first GCMS notes a month ago and my application is stuck with security screening since feb. I have order GCSM notes again last week to see if there's been any further progress.

When I found out I was being processed in London I was very happy because I was under the impression that is was one of the faster ones. Sadly it doesn't seem to be so.

@Jojoba, same here. I was very happy when I found out it was London. It is just sad that they seem to be the slowest

It seem lvo is really slow and not proactive,hence,this thread is not vibrant. They haven't touched my file since it was transferred to them in feb 3 also. It's disappointing. Sometimes I wish I was in accra,since the petition we signed then and workload distribution after, it's been fast.

I don't know what you guys think about starting a petition like we did for Accra.
I agree with this position if not we will just have our lives on hold until they feel like looking at our files how do we start this

As far as I know applicants with SS, their files are in Ottawa. Are you sure your file is in London VO?

Yes, I had last communication with London VO in which they said that BG is in progress and also I can see in my GCMS notes that my application was moved from Ottawa to London in december.

FINALLY! Just got the email! 6 months and 1 day!
Logging into my CIC account was probably one of the scariest things I've ever done and my heart didn't stop racing until I opened the attachment.
Guys thanks so much for basically holding my hands for the past few weeks when I was slowly loosing my mind. Good luck to everyone and don't be discouraged

I checked this morning and it was still NA until I got the email about 3 hrs later. The email was from CIC, although I sent LVO and Ottowa emails yesterday.
Congratulations mate. Could you share the contents of the email you sent to CIC?

Hello Guys. please help here if possible?

Where to find amended pages of British Passport?
are there asking any specific page/s?


CIC email-
· Please submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the valid passport for you and one for each accompanying family member .
Hi,

Opposite the bio/photo page is a page with 'Official Observations'. This is what I presumed they wanted. I sent a single photocopy with both the picture and observations pages showing (I have no official observations)

* Date of birth (YYYY-MM-DD);
* Unique Client Identifier (UCI) number / Client ID number;
* Application number;
* Category of Immigration; Provincial Nominee

Good morning,
I would like to inquire about my application status. It's been 6 months and there hasn't been any change in my application for months now. I would really like to know if there is any holdup with my application and if there isn't when can I expect some news?
I do realise you all work very hard and probably have a lot on your desk right now, but the wait is getting unbearable and I'm sick with worry.
Hope I get a response soon.

Kind regards,


I do realise that the email was a little bit teary but I really didn't care. I also raised a elativeResolver=http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/london-visa-office-applicants-lets-connect-here.406986/page-61

Oh nice, well composed. I think i might do the same. Mine will complete 6 months in just six(6) days and it's really annoying that it's taken such a long time. Quick one - Where you told to send your height, travel passport bio page and eye color details? If yes, when was it requested and when did you send it in?
