I've got intouch with the MP 29/01/19. received call 05/02/19 back from MP saying HO request marriage certificate and they still haven't received it. I told her I send it to them via email 25/October 2018 so I send a copy of email to the mp. MP told me she will write a letter and will send copy of my email to HO.
Received Email from MP on 22/02/19 saying that HO hasn't got back yet ..

Please pray for us 🙏🙏

Currently waiting for a response for my wifes visa application

Received a call today from 01140106172 which is a sheffield number but I missed it. No voicemail left

Trying calling the number back but it just doesnt go through (no bell or anything)

So Im thinking what are the odds of getting a call from sheffield whilst waiting for a response and it not being the Home Office? But then why wont they leave a voicemail?

What shall I do in this situation? Shall i contact them myself? It has only been a month since the biometrics were done and i did not pay for priority service :shock:

They will call u back. Its normally q phone interview.
No call back since....
I hate everyone!

Contact them again. This is ridiculous. You should have been on their case every other day after they you told that a decision was made. What are you waiting for?

Hey

I too have been waiting for a while now. I rang them up on 29/01/19 asking for an update and was advised that a decision had been made on 28/01/19 and that i should wait to hear from vfs. 2 weeks went by nothing so decided to call thrm again last week to only be told that a decision had been made on 14/02/19 and that i should wait for rhe passport. Upon telling the advisor that I rang 2 weeks prior to that and was told that a decision was made back in January the guy seemed a little confused and just said that there was an update on the system and all that it said was decision made 14/02/19.
I don't know what to do now. Asked my fiance to ting the vfs back in Bangladesh to see if they have received her passport but guess what? Number doesnt work...

Did you know that from today 6,3,19 you can not check the status of your application via tls contact web site. As if we didn't have enough stress from H.O delaying people's case and now they don't even let you check if decision has been made or not.. thank you H.O for been so helpful. Just destroying family & relationship for innocent people 😤😤

Got a question

If Home Office wants further documentation will they email me or the Solicitor? Ive come to realise that my Solicitor is pretty useless and I dont expect him to take any action if they do email him.

His email address is on the Appendix 2 form so Im worried that they might email him.

Shall I email Home Office and tell them to contact only me in future if they require anything or is that not necessary?
I hate everyone!
