I was shocked to know that this person did not even know the correct website to go on to and guided him instead of him helping me.

You will get a response for the form you submitted. In that response they will mention what date they recieved it.vrks wrote:theautomator wrote:The people on the advice line are useless.

Which service you use to send? post or check and send?

That's the whole problem its gonna be a week that I submitted my application tomorrow and I still don't know if it ever reached ips office or no. Infact I took a guaranteed next day delivery prepaid envelope with me so that it can reach next day and also can be tracked but the guy in post office said that they wouldn't let me send in that as there is a different procedure to send applications to ips so really don't know what's going on. I'll call them and try my luck again in next few hours.madihi wrote:they should tell you when you asked them over the phone.

I also used Check & Send at local Post Office, but they forwarded it on to IPS in a Special Delivery envelope. They gave me the tracking number, so I could see that my application reached Newport next morning.vrks wrote:That's the whole problem its gonna be a week that I submitted my application tomorrow and I still don't know if it ever reached ips office or no.

Thanks for the Tips. Very useful advice, will take it all on board.iereboy wrote:The best tip is to forget about it.
From start to ceremony, mine was a 6 months waiting game.
Just put a date in your calendar 6 months after you applied. When that's past, then start making enquires. You are in very early stages. There is no easy way to deal with it. Keep yourself busy. Do loads of overtime at work if you can to keep yourself busy. Go to the gym loads, whatever it takes to "fool" yourself.
Its a mind over matter. Only you can make the waiting process easier or harder. As many before have also said, it would be much easier, if there was a stage by stage online tracker. I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon....
Good luck and keep busy.
