And,
If you did frontload your meds & p.c's then what are the chances of not being notified you have a c.o and they go straight to your visa grant( providing there are no problems ! )

Re: OCTOBER 07 APPLICANTS
Once you get a C.O how soon after if you have frontloaded your meds and P.c's should your visa be granted ?

From following threads on BE, some people do not get a case officer at all but I think most do.
As far as how long from allocation, have a look on other month's threads, it varies enormously. Some on September have had case officers for months and are still waiting.
Good luck

Going crazy ! ! You know when you think your app is at the bottom of the list, as thats 2 people been granted C.O's that applied on the same day as me... Hey Ho just have to be patient, I don't know why I am like this it's not as if we can go the next day we get our visa, we haven't even put the house on the market yet !

I know how you feel, this bit is really hard but I think sometimes COs are allocated a bit randomly as someone from the 16th October has had a co already. Just think how people waiting from last June and July are feeling right now - I'd have gone bonkers by now
We are the same, we couldn't just go straight away yet, as house is up for sale, no interest yet (but it has only been 2 weeks!) It would be just nice to know that part is complet and you can then worry about the next bit, selling the house, organising removals, flights, rental house, jobs, schools
I'll stop there!Good luck, hope you hear soon

Jo,
Congratulations on having your meds finalised
When did they arrive at LCU? Mine got their Monday just gone so I might be able to get an idea of current processing time. Were your meds Cat A?
Great news, fill in those forms, you'll have a visa before you know it!!!

Re: OCTOBER 07 APPLICANTS
Hi all,
Just wondered how everyone is doing... For me the waiting and not knowing is driving me insane. I know I shouldn't complain as it has only been just over 3 months and there are applicants who applied a long time before...
Great news though on having your meds finalised Jo...one more thing off the list hey! And fantastic news 175Steve on getting your case officer..

Re: OCTOBER 07 APPLICANTS
After having a whinge this morning about not hearing any news , I have just logged onto the status page for e-lodged visas and most things have been changed to "met" !
Evidence of specific work experience still says "requested" as does"evidence of work experience" and all our passport photos !
I presume this means we have a C.O now ! And we are now 1 step closer to having that golden visa stamped in our passport ! ! !

Re: OCTOBER 07 APPLICANTS
Dear Colin and Toni and rest of October crew
meds left UK on 13 December, with Royal Mail so could not track their arrival. but says on status page received and finalised 14/1/08. so not too bad considering Christmas was in the middle of it all.
just wondering about this Form 80, which some people seem to complete and others not. It is not included in the checklist, so any thought on that would be appreciated.
cheers
Healthy Jo and family (well according to LCU anyway)
