I lost my father and as the 1st son I need to travel to African for his burial on the 15th of this month.
Please advice.
Your response and enlightenment will be immensely appreciated.

You may seek an expedition on compassionate grounds, but no guarantee it will be granted.

Thank you obie for your response, its much appreciated

I wrote to the HO to expedite action on my application on compassionate grounds. It was granted and we received our biometric cards on the 12th of May and I travel for the burial on the 14th. I'm back in the UK now.

Thanks everyone!
