lol yes it was a race against time however we would've submitted it 2 months earlier but it was because we weren't getting the evidence for the english test

Applied 5th July at Islamabad.
My spouse gave the test in Islamabad with City and Guilds, it was just the delay in certificates.
But true, yes they do like to make extra cash in any opportunity they get.

lol- it was delayed by over a month! They had an issue with the main centre, the main centre basically kept the certificates 'hostage' (lol)...so my husband argued and said he wouldn't budge until they gave them because they did say both ceritificates arrived.
I rang City and Guilds from here every day ....lol glad that's over!

last time my mp contacted them they said they opened my file last time on 10 sep 2012 i dont know how long it takes hope to get a replay after Eid Holidays wat could be a better gift of Eid from ukba

skstar · Post by **skstar** » Tue Oct 23, 2012 10:41 pm

Congrats m.k- that also makes it around 5 and a half months for u in waiting.

Omed- I haven't heard any applicant from July having heard from them. :/
I don't want to get my hopes high, so I'm giving it the full 24 week waiting. So mid December, but hopefully they can only improve on their processing times so maybe 20/21 weeks? :/
