Hello All,
ALHUMDULILLAH, i received my approval yesterday!
interesting thing as experienced by many others is that, i called HO yesterday just before lunch and i was told that the application is still in progress and i have to wait until december to get a decision.... However the approval letter was waiting for me when i reached home in the evening... Their system & enquiry line is a real JOKE!
anyways, here's the final timeline:-
