So they say they received my applications on 7th november, according to Ecas, but no news after that, should I be worried that we haven;t heard anything at all?

No anything, including no sponsor approval? I would definitely give the call center a call to see if they can track down what's delaying your file.

If he logged in with the F-XXXX XXXX number, it wouldn't really say anything abt SA

CIC at an absolute standstill. This is so frustrating. No real movement for nearly 2 months!

Do they send an email when the applicant's application is approved ?

Added! You know that you are visa exempt based on where your passport is from - if you have a UK passport (or EU passport I think) you are visa exempt.

No, your ECAS will show Decision Made, and you will get your COPR in the mail - I know one person who got an email, but I wouldn't by any stretch expect one.

Wonderful! As my partner is British, and possesses a British passport, I guess we can add passport exempt to the list.

Thank you for your help!

Oh shoot. I misconstrued something. My application was accepted November 27 not 20th. Sorry!

I feel your pain. I'm on a very similar time scale to your application and am starting to get down now. I appreciate there are some who have been waiting even longer but it's coming up to nearly 7 months now since SA. Just keep trying to tell myself it will be any day now looking at the average times on the spreadsheet.

Yes the pain and frustration has been hitting us hard too. On march 21 it will be 10 months since they recieved our application in London. nothing has changed on the cic website still says application recieved may 21, 2013 any day now any day now. Have to keep telling myself good things come to those who wait and being in separate countries from my husband is not helping really need this visa so we can start living properly together and not traveling back and forth getting different jobs. This past year has been the most difficult year of my life. Any day now got to keep our heads up.
