Applying for EC from UK

Hi,

I had obtained HSMP approval from India on 11th February, 2008. My EC got rejected on 16th April, 2008 under Maintenance clause. I am waiting to re-apply, as I can satisfy the Maintainence clause only by 5th July, 2008. But now the problem is, my current employer is sending me to London, UK for two months. I would be in London till 3rd August, 2008. Kindly help me with the following ques:

1. Is it possible for me to apply for EC in London, using the HSMP approval letter, I had obtained in India?

2. How much time does it usually takes to get the EC from London?

3. Can I take this risk? If BHC do not return my Passport before 3rd August, 2008, I can not return back to India. On this ground, my employer might terminate me.

Eagerly waiting for your guidance.

Thanks,
CSKMAIL
