You've only got to look at the BE timeline to see they're processing applications from December onwards............November my ar*e!
More nerves than excitment, so many things to do and worry about

)rest in hospital, and Mr Niamh (being a man!) will be struggling to juggle looking after a house, kids, wife in hospital and a new buba, we'll be the last thing on his mind!

just need to vent a bit of frustration...
we got our CO on 18/07 and then a request for more info, we had until 28/08 to submit them.
They've had all the requested info since 25/08...
They're now closed for the weekend and no changes...even the forms i'd sent in still show as "requested".
Tried emailing the CO directly yesterday - and that failed :curse::curse::curse:
I don't think i'll survive until Monday to ring them and chase!
really wish they'd grant us our visa so i can get out there!
rant over...
sorry! no baby news in the post...

OMG WE GOT IT!!!!!
Have been away from here for ages again, it's all been too much!! I must apologise I haven't checked on anyone else's progress yet, I just had tp post immediately.
I was starting to think it would never happen & like I said it's all been too much lately so I haven't been checking the status page or emails much either.
I'm sooo happy!! The emotion is unbelievable! My heart is beating so fast, I'm in tears & I just feel like jumping & shouting WE'V GOT THE VISA!!!!!![Big Grin](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

I haven't read all your posts (apologies), but have you arranged medical examinations and police clearance certificates?
Best regards.
