    Has anyone who is with a broker called direct for an update? Will they talk to you? Thank you 
    We called.  They said they cant until after it has gone past the underwriters and over to mortgage centre.  Till then ask broker
    Thank you 
    We are also limited company, you will have to ask your broker when it went into underwriter queue and then check with the date on website... bite your tongue till then

    We are exactly the same, 9 weeks Thursday, should’ve had an update last week. Broker is not helpful. What have you submitted so far?

    To give some insight on our position.

    Passed to UW 28/10
    I'm Ltd Company, partner is employed
    All they've asked is for my accountant to confirm last 2 years income; and a more recent payslip from my partner.

    Soft search on my partner today, nothing else requested.

    Fingers crossed!

    personal bank statements for both of us, accountant certs for both Sole trader and for Limited company. I am hoping they don't ask for business bank statements when it hits 30th as that will drag this on for another week.  Surprised at the minimal info they wanted.

    They’ve not asked for any bank statements from us yet. I’m thinking that’s what the update will be.
