Perhaps it’s faster due to reapplication.? Biometrics already on file

Oh, I did not submit the medical on my 1st application, not really needed for UAE residents. I did the medical on my 2nd application to cover all the bases.

Hello, I've seen many applicants from nov and december saying they haven't started the eligibility, so I'm worried because I applied on January 1st, and today started my eligibility review.

Submitted: January 1st
Bio request January 1st
Bio done January 3rd
bio updated same day
review eligibility: January 20
Medical exam: not requested yet

Is this good or bad?

Hello,

Mine is re-application (from 1st refusal).
Lodge on Dec 28, 2021, from UAE address. I'm an expat from the Philippines, living/working in Dubai.
Upfront medical updated on Jan 14, 2022
Reviewing Eligibility on Jan 14, 2022
Usually, the next update is the final decision, hopefully, it's good news this time!

Hey! This is good. UAE files usually move at snail pace from what I've seen. Did you apply via AUH office or you apply from PH (which I have seen most UAE expats from PH do?)
