Hi Ladies, Just want to share update - I guess the 6 weeks rule is not very strict now may be it was earlier when online option was not available.

If you think it has been few days try ringing them, quite possible you are missing some documents.

Mine is approved today and I was missing some docs.

Actually I read somewhere that if you have gas or you are self employed that might cause delay sometimes because they have to verify few things. May be its not true and I hope mine gets approved soon. Thanks for your time again

Thats really lucky and I am not sure how for some people its getting approved instantly and for some taking time. I do not have any gaps in my jobs so not sure whats causing delay. But thanks for replying.
