A quick question : when does exactly this 5 years of time period starts in order to apply for PR card ???
1) When EU member arrived in the UK, or
2) when EU member gets married in the UK, or
3) when Non EU family member gets RC visa ????

I was born in an EEA country to a British mother who moved back here when I was under 2 years old. I spent my whole life here and neither of us had any idea that I was required to have medical insurance while I was in further education! It doesn't matter as such now, as I've been working for more than 5 years now, but it's crazy to know that my entire time in the UK (my whole life!) up until then did not qualify towards PR because of not having CSI.

Would you be kind enough to update me when you receive it so I can try to manage my expectations?

That doesn't sound good - about your employer.... I shall keep you updated when I receive my COA, most of the people have received within 40 days of applying it seems, so hope we receive it soon.
Good luck!

Carling,
I received my COA yesterday, so around 37 days since I applied. Hope you too get it soon!
Cheers!
