Goodluck to everyone who like me are waiting...really love reading the good news bit when people get their approval.

Hi Sanjacs

Thank you.

Hi

I got my employer to call the employers checking service and gave them my case reference number (which you only get after doing biometrics). It took five working days, but they sent a certificate directly to the employer (they wont discuss anything with you directly)

Sorry I dont have the number, but its on UKBA website.

Hi sheford,

[sheford]

Thanks Sanjacs for your reply.
My employer is a bit impatient and does not understand the waiting times of ILR and unconvinced with the reality.

I will try the link.
thanks
