9 days until we hit the 6 month "average processing time" :( o_O

We've had the same statuses since 15th January - according to the statuses, they literally require nothing more from us, no additional documents, background check is being processed etc etc etc
They can prepare to get used to the sound of my voice at that point =P

Any idea what your VO is?

To be honest, I've never rang up to ask and we used a consultant in the UK who accesses our portal for updates. Its been a blessing and a nightmare not able to access our portal ourselves as I'd be checking it everyday but with no access, I can kind of try and forget about it. I usually ask for any update every 2-3 weeks to our consultant

Ah, yeah. That'd do it. I hope you hear something soon. Having a middle man would drive me nuts. As it is, dealing with people who themselves only have secondary information (the phone operatives aren't the ones processing the file) is bad enough!

I've committed to checking for updates only once a week on Saturday morning after the work week is sure to be complete.

Anyone want to join the circle of solidarity? =P

I have to admit, knowing my security is underway has made me slightly more "Oh, maybe it'll be today," and I've gotten to the point of checking once in the morning, and once in the evening.

Security can take a while (though after looking into what the actual process entails, it shouldn't really) and I was doing the morning and evening checks for a bit but we'll see what happens. Checking each day is tiring

I'm with you!!
It certainly makes it easier to bimble through the week =P And if they actually need something from you, you can expect more than a ghost update

My 6-month average processing time date was last Friday 17th May - what came through bang on the 6-month date exactly - the golden email and request for photos. It can happen in the blink of an eye, Thursday there was no change from January, Friday it was all done. Crazy.

Got an (additional family information) ADR today indicating my eligibility is being looked at. Calling to ensure this is received as they're having form based issues
