Hi Mr Ee, can you tell me what date you have been given to validate your visa please. Just so that when and if we hear anything, we have some idea of timescales involved.
Thank you

Meds etc. requested end Feb 2005
Meds etc. Returned end April (wife's police checks took ages)
Visa grant email today.
And now the enormity of it all sinks in - it's finally real!
My turn to make <b>them<\b> wait now, about to go on holiday so can't send passports to AHC for another couple of weeks...
Cheers all,
