Thanks vk1979 and well done to lumin2005.

I really hope I get mine before the end of June.... I'd really like to phone them as well but it doesn't really appear to help much!!

When I was at the NCS the lady told me it would be roughly 3 months. Is this what anyone else has been told or knows about? I know they say it can be up to 6 months....

Congratulations VK1979. At last a good news for you, have u managed to arrange your ceremony yet? Best of luck for those who have been waiting. It seems that March club is slowed down a bit. Anyhow all you need to do is kill your time, and you never know your approval could be on the way...

Finally, my immigration journey comes to final phases. Thank you very much for everyone for sharing their experience and giving advice. For those who are still waiting; I know how difficult it is. I have gone through that for 16 weeks! Please don't loose your hope. (It's easy to say this now) Laughing

I'm sure your approval letters are just days away. I’ll be back again soon for my wife’s timeline. She will qualify in few weeks time.
