The reply is self explanatory and it is what it is. Advance stage meaning your application is being brought to finality and at a decision point now, so, give or take, your approval should issue soon and could be in days or couple of weeks. Looks good for you so stay calm.

Obviously a decision has already been made on your application and a letter will issue to you from the INIS in coming days hopefully it'll be an approval letter.

You don't sound very confident in my case ? I have seen your post earlier you are very positive on most of the applications ? Do you think something is missing in my application ? They would have ask for it?

Oh why would you say that?! Honestly you're in a good place re your application and in just days I'm very sure you'd be here to break the good news to us all upon receipt of your approval letter. I'm quite positive and wish for you the very best just like I've wished many others of our forum members here.

Your application is still at second stage of processing and hope it continues to process well and progress for you. On your visa renewal, i'll suggest you email the department in charge again to remind them of your situation. Good luck!

Hi there , my GNIB expires during application process they send me a letter that they need valid GNIB card copy and my application won't process further till I send them , I have to apply for eu treaty rights again they took 4 months and send me temporary stamp 4 letter for 6 months , I renew my GNIB card and send it to citizenship department now my application is in advance stage , after approval u have to send them valid GNIB card with fee I think it's better to renew and send them
Wish u all the best
