The explanation notes after you lodge say "in progress" means the application is awaiting a CO to be appointed. I would assume "received" means your application was lodged successfully but am a bit confused why that would take 21 days. Mine submitted on 22 Nov has been "in progress" since I lodged it

Thanks Adonna. Bridgewater is the one I was intending to go to of the 2 in Manchester. Personal recommendation is always the best. Really appreciate

And talking of panel doctors, the nearest to me would cost us £960 for a family of 4. If I drive a further 20miles to Manchester there is one that will cost us about £750 so I have decided the extra 20miles is worth it. Anyone with any experiences of affordable panel doctors. I live in Nottingham and the nearest is Sutton Coldfield which is 60miles away

Adonna Thats encouraging. So did you do your Meds and PCCafter getting a CO. How lond does the police clearance take and for the meds results to be sent thru to DIAC

Super stuff. Thanks for sharing

Not yet. Have decided to start processing my police clearance whilst I wait.

You qualify for citizenship after 4 years. So you should be eligible from Feb 2015

Really!!!! That's amazing stuff. So had you already done your police clearance and medicals when you lodged your application

Thanks Lily I'm in the UK. From what you have said I think I will go ahead and book my PCC. NOt sure about the meds. Will have to read it first as I haven't done so yet. What is an SS? Cheers Gidza

Hi guys I submitted my app on 22 November and have uploaded documents as well. Is it possible to go ahead with medical and police checks before a case officer is allocated? How much are the medicals cheers

Hi guys Have just recently submitted my 190 visa app. Any idea on the average waiting times till a case officer is allocated. It says 6 months on the DIAC website but just wanted some personal, if any, experiences out there. Cheers
