I finally got my Permit this afternoon.. So happy! The processing time was quicker than I expected...

I sent my application by post...

Got 2 letters after one week (One confirming that they got my application, the other one regarding the Biometric Residence Permit)

Went to Oxford on the 3rd week of Oct for my Biometrics

After 2 weeks they sent me my Biometric Card / Permit!

The bonus too... I won a pair of Puma trainers just by Following and Retweeting (not at all related to the topic )... What a nice day!!!
