I got my approval today.

Type: From WP to Tier 1
Applied on : 10th May 2008
Recd by HO on : 12th May 2008
Passport Recd : I didn't got special delivery (19 June 2008) . I picked it up at the delivery office today.
Application was approved on 14th June 2008
Visa issue date: 17th June 2008
Visa expire date: 14th June 2011

I notice one minor thing. On the visa, it mentioned "JUIN 11". Anyone got their visa in June, could you reply. should it be "JUNE 11"?

Thanks!

Don't worry. I don't know the history behind this "Juin" thing. But it's ok as my current WP is also expiring on "29th Juin" not on "29th June".

Lokesh,

What exactly was written in email you received....this is really bizzare if email confirms dispatch and CC is contradicting ......RM should have changed status last night itself if they have received at their mail centre and you should be getting today.....may be you can wait & check RM tonight around 9 pm

Nothing to worry. "Juin" - that's June in French

why dont you write back to them , thanking them for responding your email but also make them aware CC has told its not being dispatched yet, ask them to help you out as you have an urgent abroad request which has come up early this week - hence you are seeking assistance

It was bizzare with me also when a day before CC told me documents were dispatched and next day I received email from CW saying he will not be able to let me know when can I receive documents......apparently I received RM same day when I received email from CW

So its all confusing, but do write them back & track RM tonite
