You got a long time to wait. People are waiting since last year August.
We applied November, 2021 and waiting since April.
NDVO is slow in general so you'd be lucky to hear something soon.
Be patient.
2021 probably have differ officers as generally said around.... 2022 has differ people working .

Hi there, my wife submitted an outland spousal application for myself on March 31st, 2022. We completed our biometrics on July 15th, 2022 and received SA on July 19th. We haven’t received our medical request yet. As per SA document, our file is moved to NDVO for further processing which I have heard is really slow. Is this assumption true? Are all the applications always being sent to NDVO for Indian applications or there are other offices too..?

I applied for my wife outland online application submitted on 23rd April, received AOR on 3rd August. Also, medical request and SA was received on 3rd August. She did the medical on 5th Aug and it passed on 7th August. After she linked the application to her account, it shows a valid biometrics under her account but she never did her biometrics and biometrics were never requested as well, ever happened with anyone?

what's your timeline?

Applied- November, 2021
Upfront Biometrics- January, 2022
AOR- Early February, 2022
Medical request- Early April, 2022
Medical updated- Late April, 2022
Eligibility Check In progress- May 6, 2022.

No updates yet. Just getting ghost updates.

Found out that a lot of people are on the same situation as us. This is due to the international students coming in for September session. A buddy who works with an immigration firm said to wait till September for passport request.

What's your time-line?

Hi everyone. I’ve submitted outland spousal application for my wife by mail in September 2021. She passed her medical exam in March. We’ve been waiting to hear anything since then. Our file is at London visa office and I’ve heard they’re incredibly slow. Is anyone in the same boat?

On the same boat as you. I applied for my wife back in November, 2021. Completed our medical in April, 2022. Eligibility check in progress since May. No updates since then.
Weirdly online applications are going very fast. People are getting PPR within 6 months in a lot of cases.

Best of luck. Hope we both hear some good news.

Hello. We just applied for my wife's sponsorship (inland). Does anyone here have experience of submitting an open work permit application with the sponsorship? Can you share your experience especially in the timeline for the work permit? Thank you.
