The way I understood the process, at the SA stage, they look if the application needs a "local knowledge" either about the applicant or the documents, if not then they keep the file in Canada, if it does they send if to the best VO with "local knowledge". so it seems in your case it was determined that LVO has better knowledge about the application than ADVO. that just my guess.

Ya that i have too. Pix are supposed to be sent lose right? We have many pictures how should i identify which picture is reference for which question? I should write behind pix ?
Hello FRV,

Yes pictures are supposed to be loose - believe there is a process on what info you need to write at the back of the picture like Date/Where the Picture was taken/ Who all are in the picture - you may number you picture as well and use the number as a reference in your answers.

I just read it on the cic site that visa office is allocated to ur relative according to their home country or their place of residence if thy r living thr from mor thn a year.

Its been onli 3 months my wife has shifted to dubai from pakistan. Will her case go to pakistan VO??
What if we want ADVO?
Any one with similar scenario pls help
Believe they go on your current residency - also a point to be noted that LVO is taking some load from different VO's this is not official information - but there is a chance that your file might be sent to London.

Hello guys,

I have good news today,thanks to (Impresso) who advice me to contact my MP ,the MP have an answer about my delay from ADVO and they are working in my application ,they said all of papers are and finished except the medical and the security check .

first about my medical :they will contact me within few week and tell me whether they want a whole medical or only ex-ray (it depend on India visa office approval)

second: I don't know how long the security check will take, any one can help me.

finally thank u very much, this forum is great and i wouldn't`t reach any thing without your help :)
Hello NoorNoor,

This is indeed some good news for you to get some traction on your application - Would you be kind enough to share your time line ?

The security check is a little different compared to background check. Security Check involves various parties and Org who basically give's the VO a Green Light that you are of no threat. Certain Cases takes a month or two and some have taken more, depending on where you apply and where have you been in the past ( basically they wanna dig into your history )

For Family Sponsorship the file once attained an approval goes to the Applicants Closest VO - LVO is stepping in to take some backlogs ( not an official statement yet )

Hello Tulip Flower - If I was in your place I would panic as well - but I would follow the instructions provided and send them the required docs ASAP - Once confirmed that the docs are uploaded I would order Notes Again to see what is going on.
This may be a case where other VO's are stepping in to help with the load of the application. Do let us know how things go.
