Charno and Idzawa,
Here's what's happening with my application.
I now have the sponsor approval from the government. That being said, something is happening. Due to our previous application, i have two UCI (Unique Client Id) numbers when there should only be one. Even when you apply previously, you only have one number but for some reason i have two. This means that I don't have the email regarding the sponsor approval even though it was confirmed on the phone today. This means it will not be sent to Paris until it is resolved. They claim that this issue has the highest priority but there is no way to confirm that. Once it is in Paris, they then have to confirm my Police checks and medical checks. I have done this already so I hope it will go fast once it is there.
