Hi guys, we have created a tracker on google sheet to track the minimum response time for London Visa Office. We need those whose file/application has been transferred to London Visa Office to fill in the tracker. Please this is for only London Visa Office. Thanks

In which stage is an application if it is at the London visa office? Or does it not matter at all?

When i called CIC on thursday, i was told that my application was still at the Central office and will eventually move to London.

I received a reply to my visa office enquiry today morning as below

There is no specific form, you can design the required information in excel or simple word document. For me, l used word document to supply the information and the following day the "additional document section" turns back to "we do not need additional document". Hope this helps.
Thanks you mate. I did the same and submitted today along with RPRF. Application is already IP2. Hoping to receive PPR this week ...

Really sad. Hopefully, you will receive the PPR mail soon, stamped passport and COPR. Wonder why London visa office left your file untouched for 6.5 months. This is really worrying... Wishing you the best Bro speedy SS:)

Wow that is indeed sad, I cannot even imagine what you are going through but don't worry, it will end soon with PPR. But why would London abandon your file for that long, was your file rerouted through another Visa Office? Just cannot imagine why London would ignore a file for that long
