An agent told me that, they usually checked applicants working for small companies or having their own business. You should be fine! It also means for me that they think your work experience is fine, but they wanna check whether your reference letters are original.
Good luck!

don't panic I think this is a positive move towards you getting your visa!!!!!
I'm checking the emails all the time , I'm close to losing the plot , I cant begin to tell you how many tears of stress Ive cried, and how many sleepless nights I'm having!!!!!
Ive never wanted something sooooooo much except when my dad died two days before I got married (15years ago long story)I sooooooooo wanted my dad to walk me down that aisle but it wasn't to be.
Worrying , stressing out is what I do best unfortunately!!!!
Also had one well big s**t day at work wasn't going to hand my notice in until I got my visa but now thinking I might do it within the next week!!!!
Its good to know we are all stressing out at very similar time lines
Keep Positive
Kind regards

I remember feeling exactly the same last time when I knew the decision was imminent (15 long months after applying). Unfortunately for us, it was a sh*t decision, but, hey, that's all water under the bridge now. Believe me, though, it was bad enough going through it once, second time round, its even worse. Some Karma would be much appreciated..... Michelle

We were hoping to go on our wedding anniversary, Oct 31st. We still can if we get that elusive email in the next week or so.
