Hi Becks1981,

Do you know how to contact them?
Thanks

My wife's application is the oldest one in this forum (6th Septmber)
I am going to Egypt over christams and I am going to the embassy to discuss this with them!!!!
I am getting annoyed.

Hi everybody,
I think we have to ring the british embassy in Cairo to ask them to speed up their process due to UNREST in Egypt.
Looks like egypt is heading in the same way as Syria and if this is the case we will have to wait for months to get any outcome in our applications.
What do you think guys??

any updates?????

Congratulations Megan55
