Other ways to say approval granted

Please supply the sentence within which you wish to include the word or words.

We've obtained the necessary approval for this project.

It's hard to tell what you mean, but this is one way you could say you had the approval to do a certain project.

Chalk

The sentence, "Approvals have been secured.", in the sense of, "Approvals have been granted.", is okay. The only issue I might have with it is that the word "secured" is rather formal usage, as compared to "granted" -- this is with respect to current American usage, as opposed to British usage, which can be quite different from American usage. Also, generally you get a single approval for someth

what I wanted to say is something in the following meaning: "we've Got an approval to take a specific action"

so what is the most appropriate way to say it:

1. approval has been received
2. approval has been granted
3. approval has been secured
4. approval has been taken
5. or other...

please specify if any of the above is wrong

These are acceptable:

1. approval has been received
2. approval has been granted
3. approval has been secured

Make sure to use "an" or "the" in front of those sentences Mister Micawber gave you, whichever best fits your situation.

An approval has been received.

The approval has been received.

Chalk

I think the noncountable form is the usual, Chalk. The article is not usually used. Here are some examples:

Approval has been given for state aid to link Shetland to the mainland.

Unlike planning permission, work may start before approval has been granted.

No application for approval has been made, whether refused or pending...
