Date of Approval Waiting.


I am beginning to get worried. My case was very straight forward with no adverse issues at all. Text book. But people who applied after me started to receive approvals.

What if the letter gets lost in the post? I wont have any way of knowing the outcome, would I?

You obviously dont know there is a method to calculating when you will get your approval check my previous posts... based on that you should have got it already..... so looks like you way over the usual standard of straight forward applications. Tip even if your acknowledgement letter got lost in the post you would automatically receive another letter from your NCS to arrange ceremony or you can be smart and call them and check some folks have done so...if you dont get it by end of week then it is not a straight forward application it has some niggles!

MAY I ASK..??DO U UNDERSTAND ENGLISH??WHY ARE U KEEPING POSTING IN HERE..??
I SUGGEST THE MODERATORS TO ISSUE THIS MEMBER A WARNING.. AS HE KEEPS IGNORING THE KIND ADVISE OF MEMBERS OF THIS FORUM,TO NOT POST HERE IRRELEVANT CONTENT,BUT HE KEEPS IGNORING THE REQUESTS AND GUIDELINES.
AND THIS GOES TO ALL THE MEMBERS,NOT JUST THIS MEMBER IN PARTICULAR,NO OFFENCE..!!IT'S NOT PERSONAL BUT U NEED TO FOLLOW THE GUIDELINES AND RESPECT THE PEOPLE WHO WORKS VERY HARD TO KEEP THIS FORUM WORKING AND RUNNING,IRRELEVANT COMMENTS MAKE THEIR JOB HARDER WHEN THEY NEED ONCE IN A WHILE TO CLEAN UP THE MESS U LEAVE BEHIND,SO PLEASE,TO ALL MEMBERS,DO UNDERSTAND.

you posting this does not help the time line either l have had a look back the last 5 posts you have done here are not time lines. l agree that all members not posting timeline should be warned starting with you because your last two post got nothing to do with time lines and irrelevant.

I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO POST AGAIN AND YET AGAIN,U ARE STILL IGNORING THE GUIDELINE,BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE U DON'T FOLLOW THEM THAT'S WHY I KEEP POSTING HERE TO MAKE U UNDERSTAND,BUT I CAN SEE THAT,YOU WON'T UNLESS,U GET WARNED,REMEMBER,U ARE ALREADY ON -THIN ICE-,SO PLEASE STOP POSTING HERE.
TO ALL MEMBERS,NO NEED TO BE SO STUBBORN AND NOT UNDERSTANDING /FOLLOWING THE RULES..
I KEPT REMIND PEOPLE LIKE U WHO DON'T CARE AT ALL ABOUT THE RULES AND THE GUIDELINES,SO I HOPE NOW AS ITS CLEAR ENOUGH TO THE MODERATORS TO PUNISH ANYONE ELSE WHO SHOWS THAT KIND OF BEHAVIOR,STARTING BY MAKING AN EXAMPLE OF YOU.
I WISH I DON'T HAVE TO POST AGAIN HERE,BUT IF PEOPLE STILL IGNORE THE GUIDELINES, I'M AFRAID THEY WILL BE BANNED BY THE MODERATORS...U HAVE BEEN WARNED SO MANY TIMES.
DON'T WORRY I'M NOT RUINING ANYTHING,MY LAST 5 POSTS WHERE GIVING ADVICE TO PEOPLE LIKE U TO STOP POSTING RUBBISH..!!AND JUST TO LET U KNOW,THE MODERATOR WILL DELETE ALL IRRELEVANT POSTS,SO GUESS WHAT,U CONTRIBUTED TO MAKING HIS LIFE MISERABLE AND GIVING HIM HARD TIME DEALING WITH ALL THIS,AGAIN,I WAS JUST POSTING TO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE OF THE GUIDELINES,THE ONES U IGNORED BY PURPOSE...I DID NOT POST IRRELEVANT MESSAGES,BUT MESSAGES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE THREAD,NOTHING ELSE.

Dear valuable forum member,

Good news, we got our approval today.
Please see timeline, and few words for encouragement.

App submitted: 8th of April special delivery spouse of BC
Fees taken: 16th April
Approval: today 11th of June. Dated 7june

Now I understand our approval took longer than fellow applicants who applied after us. I was getting worried and stressed with the delay. Spoke to my local MP and she advised me the process UKBA follows in this category. She told me they have several teams and applications processor/handler. Her assumption was that applications lodged first week of April since fees changed were taking longer for unknown reasons. She also advised me it could be a possibility that certain application processor/ handler could be on holiday whilst dealing with certain amount of applications. Even if you look at the trend of approvals here, several members are awaiting from early April, whilst 15th April onwards got their approvals back in may. Anyways keep faith and you will get the approvals soon NOW. All the early April ones keep an eye on the post. Another predictor. Lol
Sorry for typo's, vocabulary errors as I am typing on an idiot-phone.
Hurrah

Congratulations I have applied 2nd May and waiting. My predictions is in this forum we are taking example of 50 applicant to justify the decisions process of almist 15-20 thousand application ■ today tomorrow answer will come ☆ ☆☆ ☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆ and it seems to be long residents application is taking ages where people with 3 years residency getting approval quickly .
