[quote="Nash82"]The wait is killing. Its a shame that HO is charging huge amount of fees and taking so long to make a decision on applications. I am only worried that If they take more than 6 months then what will happen? I pray to ALLAH and hope that the decision comes within 6 months. One of my friend who applied as a British Spouse got his approval after 8 months. He applied in july 2014 and recieved his approval in march 2015. Hopefully we will recieve within 6 months IN SHA ALLAH.[/quote]

If you read this forum you can see there are people who applied last year JANUARY and still no approval for them
But I find it interesting some people get ut within weeks like me some people have been waiting months like my husband. Tomorrow will be 5 months...

Yea Jaweb I have noticed that and it is very frustrating. I am under the impression that there is no first come first basis or HO caseworkers are so dumb that they are unable to process the applications in a proper and effective manner. Hopefully some good news should come In this month. It will be 5th month for many of us March applicants.
