we can only pray and hope for the best !!!
I think all the previous letter sending to MPs and what not by old members really did get noticed at some point and now they are thinking about hiring/hired new staff. Maybe even pagalboy's class suit may have pushed the audit as well and they are clearing up things before the audit gets done. I am just speculating .. but if this is all true then this is great news for the new applications and they wont have to go through so much suffering and it seems like the old efforts did not go to complete waste. I am keeping my fingers crossed so lets see if we get overwhelming number of 2011 cases reporting some sort of movement due to this change.muzmil said:I think my MP assistant was right as we can see 2011 cases getting re-meds etc etc - The new staff is taking on new 2011 cases now and i guess NOV- DEC 2010 will still be handled by the old staff that's why they have to wait more- To add some more info here as per the mp office , the actual processing time for a straight forward wife case at CHC-ISL is still 6-8 months.
The reason for this long frustrating wait is the shortage of staff and the time wasted in transferring skilled and parents sponsorship to London.
The initial screening is done by local (desi) staff sitting in the high commission after around 12-13 months after transfer from Mississauga. if he feels that marriage is genuine and all 3 stages are done properly he will issue re-med or request to fill forms. So actual processing start from the date initial review is done and the delay is due to the shortage of staff at this initial level - The final decision making authority / PPR issuance is done by VO and for them its just like signing a paper based on the input of IO- My MP office even told me that VO can even issue 100 PPR every day but the Initial level assessment is slow. Also, the BG check for wife cases are not strict they just do 1-2 things like verifying educational documents or sometimes they totally skip it.
so my friends i guess 2011 cases might get done even before our 2010 cases

AOR January 14 2011.
So now we have seen activities in a few cases from Nov2010, Jan2011, Feb2011 and a case from March 2011. That means they have finally started to clear out all 2010 AORs and started on the early 2011 Cases. Congratulations to all who have seen some activites in their cases and InshAllah everyone will get the good news soon...intellix said:
Thats a valid point! Hopefully all those efforts that were made by 2010 applicants will pay off and the new applicants wont have to suffer as much as we did InshAllah. There are activities seen in late 2010 and early 2011 cases now finally so its definately a good sign and seems like there is hope for a faster process.humpakwatankaylog said:
InshAllah...Lets hope so...Awaiting 2012 said:If the old cases are being handled by the old staff, then I think it will also affect 2010 cases, as the old staff can only concentrate on those particular cases and who knows soon we start seeing nov nd dec 2010 applicants getting requests!! Be optimistic all
