Finally some movement from the nairobi office. I got an RFI on the 26th of November

Dol was 5th April 2019
Medicals and PCC on 30th April 2019

Three updates between 30th April and October 2019

First CO contact and RFI 26th November 2019

RFI, was comprehensive chat history from January 2019. It specifically said they dont want screenshot with whatapp. So if you used whatapp as evidence of communication, best to export your chat to your email, open with ms word and save as pdf and upload. You save yourself the time of they asking for it , should they want to ask for it

We are on the same I lodge my wife application on the 1 April 2019 and they requested for more documents on the 20 November 2019.What do they requested from you pls?

What documents did they request from you if i may ask

Hello everyone, I am new on this platform. I was trying to find out the cycle for the partner visa application. For me: Date of lodgment was 20-Dec-2019; Biometrics: 7-01-2020. Further evidence added 13-01-2020. What follows after that and when does one get assigned a case officer? Goodluck everyone. I had my biometrics in Lagos, Nigeria. What I find strange is the fact that they stated Abuja, Nigeria rather than Pretoria, South Africa as we all know

Welcome to the forum.

It could take some time for you to hear from DoHA. Some people get grants even without any prior contact from a case officer. Some people get contacted in about few months or it can take more than a year.

Current global processing times for 309 as per Nov 2019: 75% visa processed in 17 months and 10% takes more than 20 months.

Do they normally give out the same days of giving back the RFIs or it depends with each case?
