flip me!- march!! :eek: .....not asking what it is, but was it something that you could resolve easy by email?,(as Dutch says, something can make you eligible for next intake?) or something you feel should have been asked ages ago by them?Yeah im sure they do. I'm saying that if I don't get in now it will be down to vetting. I had an email from them today questioning something on mine...theyve had it since March!
...maybe needed further info... 0 -

Just to clarify a bit, what I meant was not that answering it would make them eligible but rather the fact they're actually processing it now (and their query is evidence of this) means AC&V have around 5 weeks to get it checked to have them ready in time for the next batch.
From reading through old posts of the campaigns from years ago it almost seems as if your vetting just goes in a pile when they get it and they work through them, that's why there's no way of knowing when it'll be done (as you could have a massive family or loads of past addresses) or even if they've started it. I sent mine mid March as well and have heard nothing, I even thought mine would be a wee quick one since I'm still a homebird with one address my whole life, small family, no convictions/offences etc etc but it seems pretty obvious by now there is just no way to second guess this process.
I've tried to keep the thought in my head the past few days that really, this is the job I see myself doing for the next 30 odd years of my life, what's another five weeks of waiting in the grand scheme of things?
Anyway, that's my thoughts on the matter just thought I'd make it more clear what I meant.0 -

Well I failed and appealed my medical which probably slowed things up....about a month I reckon.
It was just expired points on my drivers license. I had to email an explanation. But even still it's been a long wait for everyone!!0 -

Just discovered something worrying today, my partner and I have recently sold our property and have had an offer accepted on our dream house. We don't require any finance to buy the house but as it is derelict we will need to mortgage it once we have possession of it to renovate it. My partner is self employed and only has one years books so she cannot get a mortgage for 2 years. We were relying on me getting the mortgage but IF I get in ill be on probation for two years and won't get a mortgage until that's up. If I get in we may have just spent every penny we have on a house we can't live in, I need to pray I can get the sale finalised and started going for the mortgage before I get in!!! Anyone any experience of anything like this? Felt physically sick when I remembered the 2 year probation thing 0

Had a little experience if that. When my ex got in we were buying our house. We used an independent mortgage rep that we knew who pretty much guaranteed we'd get the mortgage. He wrote a letter to the lender and we had a guarantor on it just in case the probation thing effected it. As far as I know your probation is like any other job. Keep your head down and get on with the job and you shouldn't have a problem0 -
No, no completion date, they're thinking end of the month for our own, week or two after for the house we are buying. If we have to sacrifice and rent for a year or so it wouldn't be the end of the world, just very frustrating and costly. Might consider a static caravan in the garden if there's no way round it, my own upmarket take on the glen road gypsy camp lol

Have you got "the call" yet?
The mortgage market has changed in the last few months. Would be tough to get it through even if a family friend was a mortgage advisor. Best of luck.
PM if you need any info
No!! No 'call' yet, still hanging on to hope by the fingernails, if I get it I will probably start to attck your inbox lol, thanks
