I have read through the different messages on this thread and it appears that if you do a joint application, it takes only 2-3 months.
I wish I knew that, as I could have done mine the same as my wife's application.

I hope it doesn't take the whole 6 months, planning to go on holiday in July.

Good luck to everyone, hope 2018 is good year for processing application for UKBA.

Thanks

Ishy
