Dear Friends

AOA

Good to see many approvals now a days.

I have submitted medical and landing fee in April 2012, but my status is still showing "In process" . Its over 8 months and there is no further update/request from London office for passport/Visa. My application is through CIC London office. Is this normal? any chances of rejection after medical and landing fee submission.
Feedback from friends are much appreciated.

Thanks

Waalaikumassalam,

When did u email last time ur Visa office, and what was the outcome?

For people who think that CHC London sends same standard emails to every one, here is an explanation hopefully this makes sense:

Yes, it is a generic email that they send everyone, but they have generic email for every stage your file is in. For Instance:

1) Your file is in queue for initial review
2) Your file is in queue for review
3) Your file is in background checks
4) Your file is in queue to be reviewed by a decision making officer

Admit it guys we have all seen all these replies, now let me explain in details

1) Your file is in queue for initial review (you will keep receiving this reply until they look at your file for the first time after sending AOR ~9-12 months)
Once they do the initial review of the file, they look for missing documents. Does the file need extra supporting documents?? Does the marriage look genuine?? If in doubt they send a letter asking for missing/supporting documents they also send supplementary forms and a few other ones we have seen on this forum. They send a letter and put a Bring Forward date on the file. Until that date comes:

2) Your file is in queue for review (On the bring forward date the file is opened and gets checked for what was requested and if things requested are there it goes to the next stage could be the background checks, verification of documents etc. If the documents requested are not there, they put another BF date on the file.)

3) Your file is in background check (You will keep receiving this generic message until the background checks are done)
Hopefully everything is done by now except the background check and they notice the medical is expired and so is the PCC, here is another letter requesting those.

After they have everything they needed, the file status is:
4) Your file is in queue to be reviewed by a decision making officer. This is where they decide if the person needs to go through an interview or if the VO is convinced or the file to be rejected.

Then the letter is sent whether the file is refused ( with appeal instructions) , or Passport request for VISA to be stamped or an interview call.


The process I have explained is not 100% accurate, but its just to give you an idea about what's happening at the CHC-London."

Dear KAdnan,

What is your opinion regarding this

Medical done in April 2012
3 CSI sent. The repy sent to all of them was

Thank you for your message. Please be advised that the above file is currently undergoing routine background checks and you will be advised if any additional information is required

Another CSI sent on 1 January and got this reply today

Thank you for your message. Please be advised that the above file is currently awaiting officer review and you will be advised if any additional information is required

Is it again the delays tactics of the VO or what!!!My nexy stage is hopefully INSHALLAH PPR...

Keeping my fingers crossed!!!
