Than
Thank.you hope I don't have to wait long. But to me it looks like I have a good wait still its taking a toll on my marriage feels so crappy that someone is deciding my fate
Once you submit everything required it wouldnt be that long...the timeline is now 12 months. I submitted my application in October...I had some delay with the Police Clearance which added an extra 4 months wait since it was something they were waiting on to start the process. The also requested the passport on May 29th and we only submitted it on Tuesday.
So have some patience...you will be fine...it does put a strain on the relationship but if you don't have kids it is much easier. They are applicants with kids and they have been waiting for ever!
So you're only 8 months in, fingers cross you will hear something soon, since the have up until December to wrap things up.
Good Luck and all the best!
