None yet, On friday I asked them for an update and they said it will be going to a caseworker on friday itself, meaning it sat in their inbox for over 15 days doing nothing :)

1. Any one knows the normal time it takes once it goes through caseworker?
2. I heard that they do some initial checks before sending it to a caseworker?

Anyways, lets wait and watch and hope for something best..

What does it mean? Can they approve so soon or reject so soon.

I think Joe is asking how long it will take to receive the ceremony invitation letter...............Someone who got 2 separate letters (Decision + Invitaion for Ceremony) can advise.
