I heard from them, I got email this morning with my UCI and Application# stating that my application was received on March 2nd. No SA yet but it shows it is progressing.

What I was wondering is will the faster processing times still apply once our applications are sent to different visa offices (i.e. London)?
I've been following the Singapore VO and Vietnam spouse sponsorship forum last 2 years since I was planning to do the sponsorship than.

2 years ago I've seen people get approved from Singapore VO in quickest 8 months from when they submitted their application and longest was 2 years or more which was pretty common.

Couple months ago I'm reading people getting approved in 6 months. Everyone is excited.

Now I'm reading people getting approved in 3 months from when they submitted their application to Mississauga.

Don't know if processing is faster but it's exciting reading everyone hitting their stages earlier than expected.

Thanks Deepax for the reminder. I am sure if all of us can update our details then the waiting wont be as boring as only a few people in the forum having details in the spreadsheets. Please let us all take a few minutes and fill in the details. ;) ;)

Thanks for the info. Three months world be perfect! I'm hoping it's within 6 months. ❤❤❤

Here it comes. AOR1 received this morning.

I have a question. The AOR1 mentions my UCI (I am the sponsor) and not my spouse's UCI (my spouse already has a UCI from a previous application). Is this how it is supposed to be? Will my spouse's UCI be mentioned in AOR2?
