Good Evening Sir/Ma,
I am very new here but sure need advise. My wife and I applied on April 2017 and had my medical on October 6th. Since then, we haven’t heard anything from the AVO. We sent couple of emails but got response that we are on queue. What steps do you think we can take again because the wait is frustrating. Is it polite to write the minister now? Will appreciate your response. Thanks and God bless

There are a few of us from April (me included) that haven't heard yet. We will get there. Just be patient.

God willing, we will also hear some good news soon. Thanks

I was hoping we would hear some significant news from Accra today... *sighs* I have never seen a more lousy VO before. I pray this week won't be like the previous weeks.

Last week was amazing! I have a feeling we will hear more later in the week.

   What's is happening at AVO? Are they short staff? Are they having more volumes to process? Is it an African thing? A lot going on in my head after seeing this timeline from Sri Lanka.

Can someone please answer some previous questions I had? Thank you.

I am visiting the AVO in person - does anyone have any concerns that you want me to relay to the staff? What should I ask? Thank you.

It would be interesting to know why some applications are processed faster than others, even when others were submitted earlier .

Good luck on your visit .
