Hi concorde is your SOWP made online or paper. Did you enquire about your file to delhi immigration. Even we applied for sowp online on 25th march still no updates we did not submit medicals upfront. we sent a mail to delhi immigration on june 4th reagarding the status of our file they didnt even reply to our mail. dont know what to do. Is it better to do medicals now or is it better to wait.

Hi, they do not reply to mails asking for statuses. However, I would suggest to wait for the medical request to arrive first. I had uploaded a few more supporting documents to CHC via their online link, and received acknowledgement from Delhi Consulate that my file was being processed at Chandigarh Consulate and they have forwarded the documents there. Processing time mentioned is 4 months. I even read a forumite's comment here who filed on 31 Jan online, and received refusal in 2nd week of June from Chandigarh Consulate.

From what I have seen, by far Chandigarh one is the slowest VO, can't do anything but wait.

Even I have called visa office Chandigarh but they refused to give any status progress information and I have mailed them no. of times but no reply. Its really very stressful for waiting 4 months without any status progress information. We can just wait and hope for the best.

Has anybody applied through lawyer got any update. I think those applications process fast.

My husband's work permit will expire in march 2016. So he need to apply for PR. As my sowp application is under process. So if my husband apply for PR now, will it affect my sowp application processing.

Ya.. They don't provide any information at all. I have read some last year cases. Nobody got sowp visa before 4-5 months from chandigarh office. Chandigarh office is the slowest one.
