Hi PKenny12,
It’s taking about two weeks for info sent in the post to be ‘linked’ to applications. I suspect your application is actually with an examiner as apposed to mine which is “waiting for an examiner”. Therefore I think you won’t have to wait long for yours to be approved after then. Although I am no authority on this!
Please do keep us posted on how you get on. I am also considering the fast track route, but we’ve been told conflicting methods to do so.
