Hi steve Even i was thinking last night itself that you will get the courier only by tommorrow - ie saturday . You said in your post that the online status as delivered to blue dart was updated when you checked at 7.15 PM ; possibly it was handed over as evening consignment to blue dart and not the...
Lion , Steve , waiting to hear your news !!

HI, I sent a mail 1 hr back to know the reference number and it starts with 779***... They are looking at applicants of second week of December.. :shock: Thank you for your e-mail.

steve, if 2 Lakhs visa is true, i am not surprised abt the 5000 applications....but if they work with these numbers mainly to take decision, then i thnk we are in deep trouble..cos we can assume the chenai BHC has 30 case worker & say for HSMP there are 5 case workers....out of 5000 thnk there ...
Vidya, Quiet weird isn't it?? Ia this number for all the BHC across india, we can cofirm this if someone replies from BHC mumbai.. If above thing is correct, may be this 5000 looks reasonable...otherwise i dont see any chance that chennai BHC alone got 5000 applications between 03 dec & 28th de...

Why do you need a post dated EC? What is the timeline you need to land in UK after getting the EC. I thought you can go in as long as the EC is valid(2 yrs). Jason As per the current rules you need to have 4yrs and 11months continuous stay to qualify for ILR(Which can contain 290 days of break but ...
