It does not really change until you get your PPR.. It's stupid I know...


Never received AOR2 when they moved mine so I'm not so sure I guess it would depend on the VO's specific process.

Note: you may notice at times the status would change from Profile/Application updated and back to submitted again that would mean there was a ghost update. Ghost Updates are usually backend and won't really see any significant changes on the front end or gckey. They say it's when an officer opens your file or a system refresh on your application it's usually a good sign.
So you mean, if i dont see my progression bar for a few days is basically an update taking place? My progression bar has disappeared for 4 days now.

My bar has gone for a few days too. I dont think that means any kind of update or is considered a ghost update. Can anyone advise me on what it means when time bar is gone? Thanks

It means they have some system issue that is not generating the progress bar.

I have zero idea on what to expect lol my SA letter says my file is going to Mexico i recently had an address change so called to notify them because I was unable to update the address online using Mexico's webform only to hear my app might be going to Beijing ***totally confused*** lol but apparently the VO's are sharing workload which is great!

So far Beijing seems to be place they're sending files instead of to offices that have a backlog.

So hopefully à good sign. But things change too so not one hundred percent it will be faster.

I have seen some recent comments about that. I'm not going to get excited yet because my app is still at Sydney... will pay it more attention when I actually get transfer email or AOR 2. So for now I had to use Sydney's webform to update my address.
