Any idea why taking this much time???
I called yesterday to the customer care and got the voice message like

Does this mean they process according to the dates??

Ammu

Dear all,

My application has been approved !! :D

Here are my timelines:

Application was on Pro-rata basis. 9 months of UK Salary and 3 months of Indian Salary.
Applied on: 28th Jan 2008 (In country application)
Received on: 29th Jan 2008.
Amount Debited on: 29th Jan 2008
Reference Number on: 6th Feb 2008 (248***)
Approved on 4th March
Received documents back on: 6th Feb 2008 :D

Feel free to let me know if you need any help.

With no offences meant to anyone, I spoke with a few consultants before my application and they were ready to loot me for 1500 Pounds.
I read the Guidance form atleast 20 times and went through the Official Case worker's manual. I did my application on my own, though MANY consultants told me that mine would be doubtful since it is on Pro rata.
All that is required to apply is simple common sense and patience to go through the document carefully! :)

Would be more than ready to help anyone who needs it! :D

Cheers!
