Dear Pittabread,

Thank you for your reply.

Yes it is normal. Don't trust everything your consultant tells you. Cross check it with info on CIC site. The average timeline for London VO, for instance, is 13 months and counting.

Thank you Mezo2009 for your kind reply.
I will appreciate your kind opinion for the process stages mentioned in my post and according to your experience when approximately to expect any status development.

In fact there is a delay. Your file reached London on July 2009 however London started processing it on Feb 2010. This is almost 7 months. When did you send the full documentation to London? Is it Nov09?

Anyway, London is being processing your app for a year now. You should expect medicals within 2-3 months, if your file is clear in all other aspects.

Good luck
