What day of Jan did you  apply?

I just received an email today to confirm my details. Any idea how long it takes to be approved?

1-3 weeks usually depend , after your confirm your details they will add your name to need approve list then wait for minister to sign it 

then send you approval email , which is usually on Tuesday

so if I don't hear anything today, it will only be next Tuesday? oh man!

Oh no , my friend applied on early Jan and he got his approve letter today , he got confirm details email 3-4 days before your one

Nikkim:

Did they give you a date? Or just say it would be done in December? I emailed yesterday asking when mine would be printed, they replied a few hours later saying they are working through certificate allocations and I will receive an email with more information shortly.
