Ok I understand. If I hear of anyone who applied in march that got a respond I will let you know. I really don't know what is taking them so long. A few months ago they were giving quick responses.
I was not assuming hence the reason I said "think" plus everyone's situation is different. You may got refused and then approved using the same method when another person won't.
I think they want him to show more ties to his country than just his job and car papers because a car can be sold at anytime and he can choose to resign from his job. Those are things they may look into.
