Re: Anyone else in post AOR purgatory??
So GCMS notes landed today - Unfortunately looks like it is no further along, eligibility is at recommended pass, security not started.
A lot of applicants from countries requiring PPR seem to be marked ready for visa (RFV) with security blank, which typically means completed - not sure if that puts me further back (some of them have AOR 3+ months after mine) or whether being from a UK country, with no history outside of the UK and likely to get COPR directly unless rules change, means I'm just held at my current stage to prevent COPR being issued as security could be a quick run through.
Keep hoping they start issuing PPR and COPR to outlanders - would be nice even if it was with a proviso you couldn't travel until X date.

In any event, best of luck!

Personally wouldn't surprise me if everyone needs to get a new medical post COVID before landing, whether that be to prove your COVID free/have antibodies - or simply to check you suddenly don't have a debilitating lung condition or the like as a result of permanent damage from COVID.

Re: Anyone else in post AOR purgatory??
If you are a Brit, the most they would ask for would be a copy passport, as you do not need a hardcopy visa in your actual passport. It seems that sometimes they go straight to issuing a CoPR and sometimes ask for a copy passport first. I know that for my wife they just issued the CoPR and I know from several others that this has happened to them too.
In any event, best of luck!

Its more the knowing if I am sat at a similar stage to other outlanders so could be through in the first couple of weeks of CoPR being issued, or whether I'm some way off compared to those that are at RFV (as no one really knows how the process works, yes a case officers reviews my case, but when they approve it, in normal times I'd get CoPR issued straight away, is that the reason it hasn't been marked as reviewed, or is it generally sat in a backlog that could be 12+ months once they are up to full capacity before it gets reviewed - which is the million dollar question no one knows.

My sister is a citizen like myself and left prior to AOR it seems. She said she was sick as a dog about it but they waved her husband through as covid is holding up applications.

I figured AOR for PR husband had to be obtained as per the guidelines and advice on here. Wow.
