however saying that - the post seems to take two weeks to get to people!

I enclosed a Special delivery envelope (if they still have it) to return everything original I sent - but they might just send everything 2nd class anyway...

OOOO such a nerve wrecking experience!!!

I hope my application is straightforward - or else I WILL LOSE all my hair - but I bet you my application will take long

Problem is though if they refuse it - what is your immigration status then???

I can feel your pain. My application was posted on the 11th January, and they didn't even debit the card! Like the EEA4, I am always put in the bad queue!
I am paranoid because I am checking the payment slip and there's no space to sign. How can they debit the card without signing authorizing it?

Well you are willingly giving your card number together with security codes etc... when you sign the declaration you are agreeing to it (thats how I see it anyway)

KC8010, Please calm down. there is nothing to worry. You will be getting your approval letter soon. Your passport is with HO otherwise they had contacted you. Just relax. You are worrying too much for nothing.

I'm really happy for you - Congratulations!!
So, did you receive the letter today?
What's the next step? You just need to contact the council for the ceremony or do you need to wait for them to contact you?

Osterly,
Did you send your application with a prepaid special delivery envelope enclosed? If you didn't I would assume that you may receive your approval letter shortly (it may take 1 week to 10 days according to the other people posting their timelines).
I assume that KC8010 got next day because of the prepaid special delivery envelope.
