Don't worry they will update when they pick up your file. I had the same issue and they updated 2 months later.

Anyone have info about Nairobi VO working or lockdown?
On their website, they said they are working on essential and emergency services. I take that they have stopped working on PR and Refugee applications.

This is the post on the website:

"Due to ongoing concerns related to the spread of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), preventative measures have been enacted throughout our global network of offices. The High Commission of Canada in Kenya has reduced operations to essential and emergency services only.

Canadians requiring emergency assistance, including urgent travel needs, can contact Consular Services by e-mail at NROBI.Consular@international.gc.ca or by phone at +254 (20) 366-3000.

For information on COVID-19, please visit the Government of Canada's official outbreak page and check our Travel Advice and Advisories. Make sure to register with the Registration of Canadians Abroad to get the latest updates at your destination."

@Arma I don't think the office is processing any PR files at the moment. Unfortunately, I believe we will have to wait till end June or July.

Got my GCMS few days ago.

Criminality is pending on my non-accompanying Spouse's biometric. There was a misunderstanding between I and the LVO, but anyways, I have now paid for Spouse's biometric and waiting for BIL.
