And the conclusion Eric is that they dont know what they are doing at the CSC. I got touched two days before my approval for two days in a row. But some people dont get touched at all. No rhyme or reason. I think they have a craps table at the CSC and they just throw the dice down. If you have both of the numbers that were rolled on the dice in your Registration Number then you get to advance to the next stage. Good luck to you :thumbs:

16/10/2006- Interview date- I'm nervous and my fiance is cool calm and collective. And she's the one that has to do the interview.
