I got email yesterday, which I checked today. My application on mycic has been updated and the application has been approved, background check has been completed. The CoPR date is 13 July and I should have me passport early next week at best or by late, late next week as it has to cross the border to get here.
I feel bit strange. Starting the journey back in 2013, after one refusal and one return, both in 2014. 6 IELTS in total, lots of disappointment, agony for not getting the required score, the journey is finally over. Things have moved so fast since IP2 on June 22, I haven't really got to enjoy this moments, mostly cos of work. Also living alone, away from family and not much friends in the city, celebration has been limited to self only. But most importantly, the feeling of when it will be approved, whether it will be approved, when this long journey will be over, all those feelings are gone for ever. And trust me, after 5 years of having those feelings, it feels strange not to have 'em. I am sure there are lot many things to look forward too.
Now the most difficult thing is to leave behind aging, uneducated parents with no siblings residing in home country and relatives, only for the sake of relation and of no use at all.
