@medohull
I totally agree with you.
We come on timelines page to track the progress of our applications not the ***** moaning.
Everyone here is waiting but not all are moaning like few.
Perhaps now the words FIRST TWO WEEKS have become so familiar the moment it flashes on a webpage I can say from who the post has come from. :mrgreen:

I was wondering, has anyone who applied in March been asked by the Home Office to provide further original documents, such as payslips, letters from university, etc? I've seen a few posts from people saying that they received letters asking for further evidence and was wondering if it's a norm nowadays.

Ladies and Gentlemen , be it 1st,2nd or any week of march. We all are frustrated by the waiting time. Lets us motivate each other and stay positive as much as we can. I personally believe HO is not following any pattern and selecting the applications on random basis. So stay positive and keep praying.

I think 1st and 2nd week need to worry, because HO are just doing what they like to only approved last week of the month in March. Dont be suprised that April will start getting approval because HO cant be predict,they make people annoyed the way they work.
