[quote="Abuzaid"][quote="jaweb"][quote="Abuzaid"]It's over 3 months now, travelling back home next month!!!dont know what if I get the approval letter in my absence :([/quote]

It is OK. You will have 3 months to book and do the ceremony. Relax :-)[/quote]

Thanks for replying, someone told me the time to book the ceremony is 28 days. Can you please tell me where can I find this info. of 3 months!!!![/quote]

It is going to be in your invitation letter and they will tell you when you book your date for ceremony.
I applied last October and got it within 5 weeks but i went home for 10 weeks so I managed to book it a couple of days before it expired ;-)
