I called Gerry up on Monday and said it was 65 working days so far so whats happening with the application - he said email Abu Dhabi - i started to laugh saying it was a settlement case. We just have to wait.....

I meant 2036789 is in the same situation as me

1- Applied on the same date
2- Same Visa Centre
3- Same Visa - settlement

Today it was working day 61 so the 60 working days ( 12 week) deadline has passed - the status is still the same.
