Hi Paul&Aly
They received ours on 31st Aug too 134 STNI, but I'm still waiting for any kind of ack
Its beginning to feel like I'm the only one left waiting.
Is anyone else still waiting for pre ack?
CONGRATULATIONS to all those who have had acknowledgements![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
Surely another 7mths wait can't be possible!!!

sorry to butt in, was just reading your thread. thought i'd let you know that we never had a pre ack, we went straight to full ack - it does happen so dont feel too bad - although i do know how you feel, try not to stress too much you'll get there

Congratulations to all you with full acks now they are coming in thick and fast it seems. Good luck to all you still waiting won't be long now eh?
Just a quick question to all of you who have had full acks very recently. Did it state in your letter that it would be 6 months to CO? I have read on another site that one person said theirs did???? Mine just stated there would be a delay due to the volume off applications received. Aren't we all praying it won't be that long?

[QUOTE=tintin7;5412099]
we are aug 13th apps
we were receipted in november 07 ( 14th) and received an acknowledgement letter on the 15th jan 08.
If i am reading it right it seemed to say that they are still dealing withh applications from Jan 07 ( allocating case workers.)
yes they seem to be moving but they only received pre-acks, not full acks unfortunately. i'm 25th july, not heard anything yet - but now hoping soon

I am Aug 29 applicant. It looks like the speed of issuing pre-acknowledgement/full acknowledgement may be even slower for Aug applicants because of even bigger pile of application in this month.
Like other fellow members, I expect to receive full acknowledgement around Christmas/first month of new year, and CO allocation around Aug/Sept. Does it make any difference if acknowledgment letter is issued later than six months of STNI sponsorship ? This is because one has to report file reference number to state SMP for sponsorship verfication with DIAC. Would appreciate your comment on this rough idea.
