Carmzie - I have almost same timelines.. Feed deducted on 30th March and Family application 2 adults + 2 kids.. Waiting any further updates i mean - approval! >> With 1.5 month already gone.. i am assuming it will be long ride! (hope to be wrong on this thoough )

My perception is - Family applications are taking bit longer than individual. I am sensing faster movement on individual applications..

I think the last week of Feb with the first week of Mar are in the same boat, the home office always acts like that.
