Hello!

I usually don’t sign into forums but this time I felt I need to do it, just because I’d like to give some hope to other people.

My EU-husband did my application (I don’t know when- maybe a month ago.
I submitted the biometrics on the 17th of November 2018 and received my PR card yesterday (27.11.2018), Family member-EU Residence.
And the funny thing is that i received my COA yesterday (dated 19.11.2018)

Im really very happy and I wish you all to have as well a very short waiting time!!

Maybe the waiting time was that short because my husband already had a PR.
I can’t tell. I don’t know..

I hope that it helped someone out there!

Good luck!
