Thanks Baxx. Yes, the BRP was delivered at 15:45 this afternoon! In our case, it was definitely worth getting our MP involved, because we were getting nothing out of UKBA. We didn't know anything about this "investigation" and as for the email you send when it doesn't arrive.... other than the origi...

Hi everyone, Finally got my ILR after 7 months: Yet, the UKBA doesn't seem to understand the basic concept that many business people TRAVEL for a living; taking 4-6 months to process applications, prevent business people from travelling, all while charging exhorbitant fees is NOT being open to busi...

We haven't heard anything from UKBA itself, but I did post some questions under Freedom of Information, and got the following responses today: 1. How many applications were received in the week commencing 24 September 2012? There were 740 S...

[quote="sheford"]@Spidery_thread Is she given right of appeal? Yes,until 3rd January.And also mentioned if she wants to withdraw the application then she need to make the decision within 10 days.They have withheld the passport as well. I would guess (but it is only a guess ) that if you decide not t...

If her leave expired during application process and the application is refused then she must have received right of appeal, depending on the reason of refusal. That's true. But Sheford indicated that he didn't want to go through the appeal process. However, I agree that might be the better approach...
