Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

LVO successfully wasted 2 weeks of the new year. No new DMs and no new add doc requests. What are they doing?

Could be off base, but my theory in general for the slowness that started to be occurring at various VOs even before the holidays is that there might be training going on for how to process the new application kit.

Maybe. However we are hearing nothing from any applicants at all. I think they are taking holidays, seriously.
