You don't need to worry about your documents. I'm sure you will hear from HO sometime next week (fingers crossed) they will write you if they need any further clarification or any document. Since you have already enclosed letter explaining your situation so I'm sure you will be alright. If you don't hear anything next week then give ring to HO and make sure everything with your file in place.
Ps: I'm not a moderator, I'm just explaining my own point of view.

I am sure the acknowledgement letter mentioned that it sometimes takes up to 6 months for applications to be considered. It is true that some people have received their approval within a short time but there are also others who haven't. I would advise you to be patient and I do not see the need to contact them so soon. Hope this helps.

its just crazy that there are a few approvals already posted who have applied after 20th.

i dont know on what basis they pick and approve the applications. feels a bit awkward specially when no info is available why its taking time when others are getting the approvals.
