Frustrating is an understatement but forcefully, we have to wait.

This is kind of interesting. So in the spreadsheet, there's a person who got their pre-arrival letter on December 9th and today they got their decision made. However, there are several others who received their pre-arrival letters in late November, but they still do not have a decision made/PPR request. This is all for NDVO.
Wonder what's going on.

Yeah, it's very odd how these guys operate. Some files literally go from pre-arrival to PPR in days/weeks, but others take months. I'm not sure what causes this lag time in between. This time between pre-arrival and PPR varies greatly even within the same visa offices. I guess it has to do with whichever officer is handling the case and along with other nuances of the case. Do certain background/criminal checks take longer than others? Hard to wait
These same VOs also issue other types of visas such as student permits and whatnot. I think December is a big push for student visas so things slow down.Yeah, it's very odd how these guys operate.

Having said that, these guys don't look like they resume work in order. PPRs and DMs etc just happening in random order.
Many people with pre-arrival dated Dec 9th as well as 18th November reported DM today from NDVO. so there is basically no particular order in which the files are being prioritized and approved. It is just an instance that some files might be straight forward while some may be complex. Nevertheless, waiting is all we could do.
Which months are you looking at that have a pre-arrival dated Dec 9th / November 18th that got their DMs today? I only saw one in April and none in March within NDVO.
