Same is here my friend don't know what's exactly the reason behind this delay.
I think that only reason for the delay is the background checks. Other then background checks I don't assume that there is anything else that can cause this delay. Because as soon as the LVO receives your file, copies of your documents are released to the subcontracted intelligence agencies for the verification and background check purpose and then they close your file and change it's status to PUT AWAY with a due date for example after 2-months. When this due date comes they will open again your file to see whether the relevant reports from subcontracted intelligence agencies has come or not, if most of the important reports has already been received then they will simply issue you MR. Otherwise they will mark another PUT AWAY with due date of two months ahead. And in this way they will continue to check your file on each due date mentioned in PUT AWAY. And thus your application will continue to get delayed and will be totally at the mercy of "unknown ghost intelligence subcontractor's feedback reports about you". So as much as these reports will get delayed as much as your application will get delayed. Because Canada is not in a position to expedite any application and pose a threat or danger to Canadian Security.

I fail to understand if this delay is due to background checks, there should be some turn around times for it. If Dec applicants are done with those checks why sep and oct applicants are waiting. The difference can be of days not months. I see no benefit to lodge the application first when there is no first come first serve rule. Previously i was comparing our TATs with other VOs who have almost winded up the FSWP 2014 applications but now within LVO there is a disparity in treating applications. They have updated the lines just to save their a** from legal issues/complaints. This has nothing to do with the progress of application.

Dear this is your assumption because I received PER on 29th January, 2015 and then they simply give PA PUT AWAY status and 15th September due date without starting background checks or eligibility. Don't know the reason, why they PUT AWAY the file for Seven and half months.

my timeline is below :

App Date : 30-Oct, 2014
CC charged: 6th January, 2015
PER : 29th January, 2015
Visa Office : London
Visa Officer: RFI
I raised CSE at the end of July and got the generic reply "your file is awaiting review and if any additional documents required we will in touch with you".

I received my GCMS NOTES on 25th august, in GCMS NOTES, they mentioned the status PA PUT AWAY and due date is 15th September, 2015.

ASSESSMENTS 1

Eligibility: Not started
Criminality: Not Started
security: Not started
Medical: Not started:

On 18th September again I raised CSE and got the reply "your file is awaiting review and if any additional documents required we will in touch with you". so what should I expect from LVO that they started work on my application or they have given another due date?

If anyone has the same experience please share. .......

Thanks
