This is my best bet, they will be releasing the updates in bulk.

Even if you submit your Visa application in Abudhabi, It doesn't mean that your documents will be reviewed at the same office. They may move your application file to the visa office with a lesser number of applications and process from there.

Ok, didn't know that. I thought the VO were fixed based on where you apply from. Could it be that inspite of our files moving different offices, they still get consolidated in AUH ? I see the application timeline for AUH office is sitting at 13 weeks. So if we applied in Dec, most applicant should hear by end of this month.

This anxiety is killing me ! Hope they start getting back to applicants soon with whatever they have decided. High time I got some good sleep

No Visa Office is Abu Dhabi.

No Visa Office is Abu Dhabi.

you can raise a web forum or walk-in to the Visa office and give a handwritten letter mentioning your concerns (If you are allowed into the visa office)

 

[DKShu]

Raised multiple webforms no reply. And I can't walk in as I live in a different country and my application is being processed in Abu Dhabi.

Even if you live here, there is no arrange for walk-in. You have to take an appointment which is available only Passport/Citizenship and notorial services. Inquiry is only via webform, they wont answer calls there.

Now maybe due to covid you cannot walk-in. But I went through a guy's profile who has done it in the past.
