I'll post an update once I get any response from UKBA. But assuming I made the right application what will be the period o...

yes it usually takes up to 3 months but in case the paperwork is not complete it could take much more. In our case it took 7 months with three attempts to get sponsorship license(due to issues like documents were not verified by solicitor/not signed by proper person etc). So I would advise to start ...

They said they expect to be taking applications under the new rules from mid-March and the new rules take effect from 6 April, so ...
