Hey guys, I'm very stressed out atm as I missed 2 phonecalls from the home office today. What happens if they don't phone back? Will the visa application get rejected? Did they leave a message? How do you know it was HO? It may be worth sending an email expressing your apology that you missed the c...

Generic email recieved from my MP office stating they will only contact me regarding my enquiry and will contact third parties only with my permission and that any non urgent enquiry will take 21 days to respond to I’m really badly conflicted as to whether I did the right thing by contacting the MP...

I contacted HO today (again emailed once before a month earlier) regarding the application and received a generic “I can confirm that your application is being considered and is awaiting a decision” Does anyone know how to escalate? They advised to send more information about the application (IHS n...

That’s an interesting thought about the earthquakes that I hadn’t even come across. Is this from your own research of this forum? Contact MP by googling who your local MP is first and then emailing all details across to them I have heard from other people that those that applied after the earthquak...

Hey ms1993 Nope, nothing for me, it is now 118 working days as of today . I honestly have no idea what is taking them so long as my 120 working days will be up next week. On another note, I have also been made aware that those who applied before the earthquake are still waiting for their decision ...

Wishing you all a Happy New Year!

Any of the August / September waiters received any contact or chosen to contact HO for an update?

Husband and I on 73 WD now

Downloaded an app on my phone to count days as 80-90-120 - hoping for this to keep me going!

75 WD actually - incorrect counting!

yes I have escalated already twice, called 3 times in total and my solicitor has called once. I have decided not to call them up anymore as they onoly tell you "awaiting decision" and charge you a lot especially considering they tend to put you on hold as well which adds up at the end of the call. ...

If that’s the case then it could be a backlog? Lack of staff? Maybe a complaint would help in your situation but of course, do so with what you feel is right. A complaint would be dealt with separate to the enquiries but may result in the same response that they have advised you of the delay. They ...

Trying to understand if it is a ‘complex’ application that would warrant such a long waiting time! no complications from my side. I have applied with 2 jobs and my wife (in Pakistan) and neither myself have had any cr...
