Been on preliminary approval for almost 2 months. Has anyone moved on to the final approval status yet? Trying to figure out start date to setup housing.

same thing
Some of my friends have the same issue. But they had their offer letter already given to them with the start date, and they called up the HR who said that if they haven't heard anything things are going good.
same here
Did you get an email related to previous payslips and expected compensation?
I haven’t been reached out ever since I accepted the offer
I’m full time, so my offer letter is a bit different than the SA and it doesn’t include a date - was just seeing if anybody has received an update
Wondering the same.
can confirm that preliminary approval = you passed. I emailed because I was in the same situation
Awesome! Glad to hear. Do you also know when we will get start dates (for IBD)?
how do you check if you have preliminary approval? I haven’t heard anything back yet
Go to the HR portal (work ways) and there’s a link on the right side of homepage
does anyone have start dates yet (for ibd)
