Hi,

Quick question, is it ok to contact the Visa office via email? did anyone submit an inquiry about their Application status before receiving their AOR?
Will contacting the Visa office cause any problems with my application (e.g. delayed further?)

Any comments will be appreciated :).

Thank you!

Another question, how long did it take for the Buffalo office to send you back the generic email?

If we can login in e-cas with client id,Does it means that our file is crested in the system or not?
because in the generic reply,it is mentioned that 30 weeks for creating file in the system

do not take that "30 weeks" seriously..... many people got PPR in less than 30 weeks
