Hi Sonia, I applied online. I did send the query e mail to port of Spain but no response. Today I send the Case specific inquiry. Lets see for how long I have to wait to hear. Thanks for the response sonia , appreciate it.

Hey,
Your medical is passed? is there any updates in your profile or nothing at all? still you can wait for a week or two.

Well i don't have to go through medical, I am exempted. Well I think so the same. My profile status says open and final decision not started. Last updated on 15th Nov (Ghost update).

Thanks again.

Hello Loop. This whole process is so frustrating. They don't reply to mail and won't talk on phone lol. We can't do much. Just pray and hope for the best.
