Possibly not unconnected with the fact that you have previously used deception to try and stay in the UK. I think the fact that you do not even remember you prospective bride's nationality doesn't bode well for the future.

But my visa is still valid till October 2009 and now I am studying in one Business College in advance diploma

Possibly two different girlfriends???

Special thanks for Paperpusher ,hohe you r f9
You r ri8 I did apply for PSW in 2008 but and latter I complete my another one year diploma in business and then done CMI level 7 diploma and on these bases I applied for student extension and I got refuse just because I didn’t sent with CAS letter state Degree and documents which was my fault and I appeal against that and I win, immigration judge asked me more then 100 question and I answer it.
Now I am doing my MBA from Greenwich University but still I didn’t receive my student visa and also HO didn’t appeal against me, and didn’t ask me any thing about my earlier application about CCL and HO didn’t give me refused about that
I am happy to get your expert thoughts what will be next ,I am pleased now I got my Ames Degree and my life partner ,and I can start easily my real life ,I don’t bother if HO say yes or No just because of my partner she want to register marriage here and I am waiting for my Degree.

But the essential point highlighted by the other posters is that you do not appear to know whether your gf/fiancee is Polish or Latvian, so there are few people on this forum who are willing to assist bogus applications until it is clear what you are doing. All the rest of the stuff you post is largely irrelevant.

Come on Mr Rusty. Maybe the Latvian girlfriend of 2009 took Polish nationality in 2010!

Thanks for reply
My girl friend she is polish not Latvians ,on that time I just write Latvian and furthermore she is not student ,doing very good job as well which is 30k .and we are living together since 2009,if need any further information please let me know.

Only UKBA can provide an answer.

Guess there's nothing else you can do but chase the matter with UKBA and wait for them to reach a decision on your application.

Why?

I hope you don't change your story like that each time you deal with the HO.

I applied for COA in March this year and have been getting the same response. I involved my MP and he wrote to UKBA. They replied saying they have a back log and they are doing all that they can, they have still not allocated a case worker to our case yet. They will be looking at each case in date of application. So if you have beeen waiting since October 2009 then that means we have a very long wait if you have still not been replied to yet. I would advise making comlaint through MP as this service is not efficient and the service is not fit for purpose.

I would disagree with the backlog bit as I submitted COA application in May, 2010 and got it before the end of August, got married in November. Many people on this forum submitted and granted around the same time. That doesn't follow the backlog excuses, does it?

Keep chasing them for it.

not fit for purpose.

Thanks HRY2005 I will do. As this means that the UKBA have lied to an MP. I am waiting to see my MP so will be passing this info on. Also getting the Parliamentary Ombudsman involved as I think the UKBA are completely useless and is not the efficient service they beleive themselves to be.

Congratulations on your marriage.

Thanks Warren, wish you good luck too.

We have been told that there is a back log of cases and we will have to wait for cases to be dealt with in chronological order. But HRY2005 inform me his case was dealt with from MAY 2010 to August 2010. We put our application in MARCH 2010 and are still waiting. I have had MP involved and UKBA wrote to him saying there is back log etc.

Would be appreciative of as much info as possible as want to know if UKBA are lying to an MP.

AS it appears this UKBA service is "Not fit for purpose"

Thanks

A search on CoA will bring up a number of topics for you to get an idea of how long people have waited / have been waiting to receive a decision on their CoA application. e.g. - had ENOUGH of waiting for Certificate of Approval (CoA)

My COA took 8 weeks when i applied in march this year.
