That's a bit strong isn't it? I'd hardly say we've ruined the entire thread by going slightly off-topic. Delete them if you like though, I for one won't be losing any sleep over it :lol:

Just waiting for mine to turn up at the mo.

All you can do now is wait patiently for the outcome. If successful you will receive an approval letter within a few weeks, along with your original documents (passport) and your new BRP card. I do agree though, the whole situation is very stressful - and given that it costs so much, it would be hel...

Got my passport in the post today, with a letter saying the PSW was approved :)

I am also really anxious. I do not think there was anything wrong with my application either, so I'm not sure why it's taking so long, given the turnaround times that other people are posting. I don't think it means there is anything wrong with our applications, however. I had some items go missing ...

I called UKBA yesterday to try and find out some information regarding my case, but because it was "less than 14 weeks" they simply would not discuss my case whatsoever. (It's worth noting: I did not even want any in depth info re: my case, just to know whether they had sent any correspond...

If it helps at all, I sent both.

I sent my bank statements covering the 90 day period and a letter which stated how much funds I had in my account covering the same 90 day period.
