NY VO vs LA VO after medical... wanna start a thread for this..

[hbic]

hi everyone, i've done my medical last aug 3 and the VO who requested it was from new york. i noticed that applicants in LA VO after their medical in May are still waiting for the response and haven't heard anything from the immigration. it's been already 3 months from their medical date. do you think that it is also possible to happen in NY VO? i hope not...

New York is probably the slowest visa office, so if it's taking 3+ months at LA it's no surprise that it's 3+ months at NY.

On the trackitt.com CEC tracker, sorting by "Medicals Done" and looking for people who have received PPR from New York, it takes 1 to 4 months; 3 months is typical.

Getting transferred to New York (or LA) is just bad luck. Hang in there! (Easy for me to say, my application stayed at Buffalo...)
