Please share any good news from the UKBA.

still there is no good news so far.

i called to homeoffice still waiting in queue... nearly five months..

The UKBA don't want us here, the EU law is what is breaking their backs. They are trying not to give too much power to EUROPE, there is no way all the EEA2 applicants can come together and make complain as one voice. The way you make your complain really matter for there to reply, the two l have ma...
