Thanks for the update. For me, it shouldn’t be too difficult — that embassy handles the fingerprinting and forwards the paperwork to Japan. It takes time, but the process is free. Glad to have received the AOR this morning, though there's no update on the PCC yet. Let’s see how it goes.
Good for you, in my case I have spent ~$150 for PCC only :(

Seems like there has been a massive slow down.. background checks are taking significantly longer than prior months. Wish it wasn’t so…
Yeah, I've checked the past data on the shared google sheet, process has been gradually slowing down.
 
The process has slowed down, but May AORs on the spreadsheet have got it, 1 month from AOR : test invite still holds from what I can see. We will need to wait and see for the next 2 weeks.
Right up to May 12th when there are no further updates for test invite. Can’t imagine everyone just stopped entering their dates.
