When did your application move to NDVO?
From what people have told me, NDVO is very slow in processing applications. They take a long time to do a BG check.

I applied in May 2019, my application was moved to NDVO in October 2019, since then I haven't heard back from them. Add to that the delays due to COVID 19, please do not expect any movement until the VFS offices open up.

Any updates today?
My cousin is currently applying for a visa to Scotland, from what she was told, the visa application centres in India are expected to open sometime between 14th August and 24th August.
As International flights are set to resume from 31st July 2020; I am hoping that will be enough for VFS to open for Canada visa application.

According to a news article published on 1st July, VFS announced restart dates for visa application for 11 different countries,
Let's hope August brings us good news. Fingers crossed.

I am confused with the consent form
Designated Representative's Information - Sponsor (Me)
Applicant information - PA - (My wife's)

Is this right?

I'm sept applicant too. After files being transferred to ndvo, there hasn't been any changes yet. It still shows application received on my online tool.
If vfs global is closed till sept, does it also mean that ndvo won't process any files?

GC KEYS online service will be unavailable from 1:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. Eastern time, on Tuesday July 28, 2020, in order to perform system maintenance.
In the past we saw some updates right after this, not sure this time.

OK everyone has the right to opinions and even right to order notes anytime. But guys think 4 notes files have to read from A to Z , perhaps move from A to B tables or positions. If we all order such notes surely more times will be spent on this side rather than normal speed of files. Of course there is no adverse effect or any retaliations sort of things for any 1 ordering GCMS notes it is our right to know. GCMS is independent from them. It comes from Ottawa . Thus, no worry with the IO. Even if the IO does know, it doesn't matter. It's as per the 'Right to Information Act'. I phoned many times re: file ,guess what? ALL WAS recorded on the GCMS notes. So my opinion ONLY order if it is huge delays/interviews/other concerns.
Dont trust that your call to call center is logged? Here is a copy of notes, I used xxx for privacy:-

The Only problem for the VO is that they need extra time and some physical work to fetch the File from the location where the file is kept. Employees never like to be overworked.

Here is a copy form a forum:-

"IT is not wise to get your CAIPS file unless there is obviously some problem, with the processing, such as very lengthy delays beyond the published times.

Don't ask for it just to find out how things are going.

BUT again NOTHING to worry if you feel like reading what's going on with file for so much long time[nothing heard for many months], OR an interview is scheduled , then go ahead order as it costs $5 only and comes in the e-mail. It cannot have NEG effect on an applicant.
If NDVO would stop sending generic emails when asked for update, none of us will request GCMS notes. If NDVO has a problem with it, so be it. I have ordered GCMS notes because I want to have an idea at which stage my file is so I can plan ahead. What makes me mad at NDVO is that it took more than a year to reject applications when it can be done in early stages. I know that it's one of the busiest VOs but instead of giving priority to international students, it should handle cases by first come first serve basis.
