Not completely sure if I understand correctly. I have received an approval letter (for my spouse and kid) from UKBA asking for contacting Council for arranging ceremony. I also applied through NCS.shahid2000 wrote:I was under the impression that you only get one combined letter for approval and invitation when you apply using NCS.

Can i please know email address you used. I am waiting for Home office invitation letter. Already received approval letter and supporting documents (We applies by post and attached Self address S D Envelope).ijaz.ahmed wrote:I've just received an email (reply for 23rd Feb Query) as below
Dear Mr Ahmed,
Your application has been approved, you will hear from the team in due course.
Admin Officer 07, North West Responder Hub
Customer Service Improvement Directorate

I'm being little excited but more skeptical because I was under the impression they only tell weather decision has been made or not and never reveal it before hand, Should I count it as approved?
My time line is as following:
Eligibility criteria: HSMP + Tier 1 + 1yr ILR
Method of application: NCS Ealing
Date of application: 08/02/2014
Date of debit or clearance of fees: 13/02/14
Date approval received: ??
What should I do now? I'm still uncertain is it 100% approval? Should I go-ahead and speak with my Ealing council for ceremony or simply wait for the letter??
I am glad, wait for brown envelope is overman4uni wrote:Cannot update my own post hence posting it again with few updated bits...
