Oh i got that in an email too. My 52 weeks is coming up in about a month. Lets see what they say at that point. will keep you updated. Then again my process might be a quick one because the chances of me being rejected is higher than not. Perhaps someone who does qualify comes up to 52 weeks soon.

They sent it back to me, when I asked for any updates with respect to my application.

Why they sent it back, was there anything missing ? and with the application was there any letter which explains why they have returned the application?
 
Afaraz,

I said they sent back the reply and not my application. It was about the status update.

hi UK2CANADA
is it ok if we keep in touch? as like u, i also sent my full docs in Oct, 09 (24 oct, 09), got 2nd AOR in Dec, 09 (14 Dec, 09.), my visa office is london. so, i think, u & me, we r almost same time line. so, if u get any progress in ur side, may be mine will be nearer & vice versa..........


so, plz stay in touch.


all the best.....
 
Hi
yes off course.we all must be in touch to share our experience and help each other.i dont know why is that taking so long to change e-case status?in my case it is more then 2 months and still it is received by the visa office,normally it takes 2 to 3 weeks to change from recevied to visa office to in process.
any experince plz share
thnks and all the best to all applicants.

Application filed CIO - 01 aug 2009

waiting.....


no to worry guys.. just a time game.. well good to know that it takes 2 to 3 weeks normally for status to change from "recvd by visa office" to "in process".. it would take about 10 days after status changes to "in process" for us to receive medicals
