Hi Samulv, Smewhere in one of the forums just read that medicals which were referred in July are being cleared now...though not sure about this.

Samulv Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Hi Samulv, Smewhere in one of the forums just read that medicals which were referred in July are being cleared now...though not sure about this. oh no! I hope it isn't taking that long! I have no health issues - just referred because of weight. the doctor even wrote on my form that I have no health complications whatsoever! hope I get it cleared faster than that!

Samulv Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 My 5 week deadline is 27th! Loads of people on here have had co after about 5 weeks so hopefully we will too! Just hope I don't have to wait too long for the grant! As long as everything is front loaded and your meds are all ok hopefully they will just give it to us! Do u have an agent?

kbounds Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 wow, two days after us! its exciting isn't it??!! i know it would be amazing if we just 'got it' yeah we do have an agent but realise now we could have done it ourselves. We just lacked confidence i think and wanted someone on hand incase something came up that we were unsure of etc. hindsight...such a wonderful thing do u have an agent?

Samulv Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 We do. Hindsight is a wonderful thing! Think we could have done it ourselves but felt having support would give us an edge. Some thibgs have been much slower but with SS they have a lot of help so maybe it was for the best. We just want to get there now! Really want to be there for Xmas but worried about my medical now. Can't check in it until we have a co so nothing we can do! I hate waiting I'm so impatient! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floorman Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Hi We lodged our 190 on the 13/08 (6 weeks tomorrow) and still not heard anything...sooo frustrating as our agent is reluctant to check "there is no updates" we are being told and cannot have a password to check ourselves....hate this waiting and not knowing!!

kbounds Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 our agent is still on holiday...has been for three weeks nearly. his manager has been in charge of answering his calls......i rang last monday...left a message to call me back....i am still waiting for that call. ridiculous. if you are waiting to hear after 6 weeks then i am not holding out much hope for us as our 5 weeks is up wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
