3 weeks for the whole process. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

3 weeks? ... :omg:!!! There's no way :nono-1-1: I could've hung out that long when MY wife applied for hers on February 23 ... the stress would've been enough to kill me at my time of life! :olddude: Which was why WE decided to apply at our nearest PEO in Glasgow - only 55 miles away - and had the result in less than three HOURS. £350 extra, I know! And ME an OAP! But it was worth every penny - if only for the sake of our peace of mind! ;)

Anyway, Rusty ... three weeks IS very quick for postal applications - as we'd been told these normally take up to fourteen weeks in normal circumstances. So Congratulations & well done, both of you. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Alas ... patience is NOT one of MY virtues ... whether waiting for either GOOD - or BAD - news; :NoNo: otherwise, I'm a [reasonably] patient guy ... honestly! :D

For me I don't like spending more money than I have to. It would have been a day off work (unpaid) and our local office is over 130 miles away.

I was not worried about the application as we provided all the documents required and applied in plenty of time. We have had 3 different addresses in the 2 years she has been here and she spent 3 months away in the Philippines last year also. :xxgrinning--00xx3:
