Just an update. I applied on the 7 May and received my approval letter on 18jan. Good luck to all of you.

Just to update all you guys I wrote to my mp about a month ago and had a reply back today, which says the usual ho crap abt checks, and they will make a decision soon as possible.

Hi guys am as same boat as everyone on here, applied on 6 May and still haven't heard anything from ho. I have contacted my mp and he has yet to come back to me with anything.
