I am! But I'm super worried,my company told me that they received a letter from UKVI on 10th of May to ask for more document,they replied on the same day.

My company has another employee who applied for RCOS in April,also need to send extra document after applying,and she got the RCOS yesterday.

So I'm worried that I will receive the RCOS in June :(

Looks like we may get the result by Monday as weekend fall immediate after 11th.
I am also desperate to know the result.

My company got a new licence end of April but there was no CoS allocated. When we applied for the licence we submitted everything relaetd to my application to prove that we need the licence. I was hoping the cos would come with the licence (as was said in the SMS manual) but it didnt :(
So we applied for a cos on 4th May and I'm still waiting as well
I read on one of the old posts that it's fairly normal to have the CoS approved 5 working days after the allocation day. So, nothing much we can do here except waiting patiently :roll:

Generally you get RCOS allocated on the same evening of allocation date or at max by next working day. But this is true if you have applied on or before 5th of the month. If later, then it will be considered for next month. Also, for other reasons (monthly quota exhausted, etc) it may get delayed.

Now chances of getting rcos for this month should be very less.
Remains might go in next month.

Another month to wait. :(

Did anybody got rcos after 15th may?

Yet my company applied again on same day of rejection I.e 25 Apr with salary raised to 30000. And till date its showing under review. :cry: :cry:

I'm sorry... although I have a bad feeling about reapplication with changing salary like this... as the salary of your position is also on the job post for RLMT..... I'm not sure

In my case I hope I am still considered an entrant as I'm under 26

I am waiting too, its nerve wracking...my employer applied on 2nd May and he received an email on 08th May for additional documents and he sent everything that was asked for. No response yet. I am switching from Tier 2 ICT dependent to Tier 2 G, is any of you trying that route?

HR just told me HO came back for extra papers next day after we submitted our request. However she insisted that HO was asking for something that we already sent in the application and we got back to them almost immediately... Sounds like a routine thing that HO just wants to confirm some important docs are there.

Sadly no... Our license was granted end of April... We included the RLMT in our license application as well. The only problem I could think of now is that I was previosuly on T5 (GAE route and we didn't hold a T5 sponsor license) with this employer and it's just tricky to prove that I'm not pre-selected for the position. I thought at least HO'd considered that when they greanted us license.

So sorry to hear...this limbo is painful...and each of our circumstances are so unique that we have no option but to just sit tight and wait.
