Did you do your vetassess in April too? And was your aplication online or paper based.
Do the visas go through quickly if you've done vetassess because other people on the main forum seem to have been waiting for ages just to get a case officer

Thats for the congratulations

moriarty -

Just to let you know we - sorry Dave did Vetassess in April.. you'll see from other thread we just and I mean just managed to get on April's assessment (the deadline had actually been and gone) he passed first time.
We got the result my post and I think it was the same weekend I did the online application.
It takes bloody ages to load all documents up but not to worry.
We sent off for Police checks just before we'd had the positive Vetassess, then booked medicals for end of May.
Then we've just waited really.

Didn't use an agent felt I'd be able to do myself and I could. If you need any pointers along the way let me know - just send me a pm and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
This goes for anyone wanting help. I've had loads from BE and without the site I would have had to pay an agent and might still be waiting.

One theory is the CO look for completed files. So frontload your Police check and medicals and make sure everythings done if you want Visa asap.

Thanks for the info.
Congratulations by the way! I forgot that earlier.
We've already submitted an online application and done the medicals the only thing we have to do is the police checks and the evidence of work experiance as i'm not too sure what to put on, i thought that would have been done by doing the vetassess but if you have any pointers i would be grateful.
After seeing this i'll send off for the police checks this weekend although I don't know why i'm rushing so much as we still have to think about selling the house which looks like it's going to be easier said than done.

Thanks everyone,

Dobaman - Am trying to work out my escape plan as we speak - need house up for sale yet - next week! Then when to leave work - would love to before Xmas (as I'm a Nurse, then I wouldn't have to work it!). But probably more likely March/April 09.

Docgp - thanks for offer of help, will no doubt take you up on that.

Becky - CONGRATULATIONS too
