That might be the case actually. That's the only logical explanation I think :D

I heard a few of my friends who applied at nearly the same time as myself got the certificate already and waiting for the passport.
Since both myself and my husband applied together, is it taking so long?
Is it better to apply seperately rather than together then?

i do not think it depends on that. When i applied alone in October i got it within 5 weeks, have my passport already but there are still people who have been waiting since then.
my husband applied on 2 March and still nothing. His application was straight forward, no overstay, clear and legal visas, continuous jobs, no penalty points, etc

I still have today and saturday. My post only comes
in the afternoon.

Some people think that sending by post is quicker
than through NCS as the majority approval are frm
those who sent by post.

The post came just now but not brown envelope ;(

You know it could be worse. It's just over 2 months. We have all seen people on this from who have been waiting for more than 6 months. We should count ourselves lucky. Well at least for now :D Let's hope we won't have to wait that long :)

According to my knowledge, nothing will be endorsed on your license or dvla records.

So you do not need to tell them, unless you fail to attend the course
