Hi Nisha

I joined today. my wife applied at Jalandhar on 24th April and still no news I think it could possibly be well into July before we hear anything as we lost a couple of working days due to the Jubilee.

I look forward to hearing your good news as I will be a couple of weeks behind.

Woah that is long - Have you tried to contact them- they have been taking long lately- around 52-60 days but since your over 60 working days you are entitled to make some enquiries. You should give them an e-mail/ call them but they may just reply with the standard answer it can take upto 24 weeks but it is worth a shot.
I think you should hear something soon hopefully.
