Hi Chinee, yes I've done my NHS registration but they didn't give me a number. A week after the registration my husband and I took my son to the GP for being ill and was sent for blood test, and went to see another doctor at Royal Berks hospital and found out that our names were not yet on the list as NHS registered, but still we were accommodated cos we told them that we have registered already and showed some documents. I don't know if there's a processing time for that, might ask about it too now cos we might be asked next time about our NHS number.
