Unhappy ARGH the frustration

of waiting for our tra. sent application on 27th July and rec. ack. on 29th July. Hadn't heard anything when hubbie went to London Expo last wednesday but rep at tra stand said he thought we should have heard well before now as hubbie is a plumber on modl so he advised us to ring or email tra as soon as we got home. I sent them a very polite email that night and got an answer straight away. They said our case had been decided on the 17th sept and a letter had been sent that day but they are unable to give decisions by email so we would have to wait until we received the letter and we could then contact dimia. :scared: Sh## we thought-is this a good or a bad sign.
Its now 3rd Oct and still no letter so i rang post office this morning and because they are short staffed at the moment they are weeks behind on deliveries. What do we do-this waiting is killing us. Has anyone got their decision any other way or are we going to be left in limbo? HELP.

Sorry, can't help with your question - but what a nightmare. This must be so frustrating especially after seeing postings where people are getting a decision within 4 weeks.

I hope they put you out of your misery soon with a big fat YES.

Hi Sue,
Its a nightmare all this waiting !!! But you will need your TRA letter to have for your main application. I tell ya I am suprised anyone passes the medicals with the amount of stress we all are under..... Just keep thinking positive and it will all come together, Then you can send off for the main Visa, ....... and then wait for that ....... talk about test patience eh!!!!!
