    I would be delighted that something appears to happening with your account. Nothing has happened on ours since medicals passed in early August! Best of luck.

    Hey, I think Gruff mentioned his application was in the Sydney NS office awaiting his security to start. IRCCs process of allocating work around seems to be without much of an order! We are in a similar position to you, albeit we hit six months next week and have also just ordered our GCMS notes...

    Hey Gruff, Hope you are staying well and sane! Didnt you receive an update a few months ago to say that your eligibility and criminality were passed and the background check had started? If so was that on you CIC account? Or did I make this up in a really strange dream sequence? I still...

    I totally agree. In trying to be amusing, I was exaggerating slightly and probably wasn’t clear above. I think CIC are pretty reasonable in giving a 6 month timeline, and they are very clear about not contacting them until you have waited six months. Any bugging them ahead of that time is just...

    No. I had to go back with a very specific set of questions on a second CSE. It took a bit longer to get reply but the response I got actually addressed the questions I had. (Again though, this wasn’t to do with when my application will be approved). I assume I will be in the same situation as...

    Hi, I got almost the exact same reply a couple of weeks ago and I didn’t even ask for an update on my case. (I had a query about a tourist visa status whilst we were waiting for PR). I found the ‘I hope this information was useful’ paragraph a little insulting to be honest. In my case I didn’t...

    Thanks tobs, I’m just hoping we don’t get rejected at this late stage - I’m not sure what the alternative would be!

    Hi, I cannot disagree with anything that Gruff said above. I can only add to the point that day to day costs of living in the UK (rent, utilities, transport - particularly if you commute into London) have all risen significantly over the past decade and wages have simply not kept up. At the...

    Ha! I wouldn’t go as far as saying we are in a dire situation just yet. If we are still without the COPR by the end of Jan, we will need a bit of a plan B, but we were financially prepared for it to take up to six months and anything quicker would have been a bonus. I certainly can’t complain...

    Hi all, Steb/Gruff - just a note to say hi and that we are in a similar situation to you guys, albeit about 3 weeks behind (UK based based family of 4 with AOR 25th July). If anyone on the forum wants a bit of a chuckle at our expense, we took a high risk approach to the PR application and...
