People are complaining to the MP after 1/2 months.. Yours is too late. You should complain
I think it is up to individuals to decide when it is time to complain and when it is not.
I applied fully aware that I was very likely not entitled to Settled Status, and also fully aware that the deadline for mandatory applications is December 2020. I already hold a residence Card valid until then, and in that sense, my case is in no way urgent. MPs need to respond to all their constituents, many of whom are in desperate circumstances, and in no way I want to require time form my MP in dealing with my case, when it really can wait.
Note that what merits an escalation here is not the fact that I still don't have a decision (like most other people with RCs, I have around 18 months still left with a valid document). What makes this interesting is the fact that the application is now officially on hold while the resolution centre receives an update on some new policy. That's what I want clarity on. I'm not asking for a resolution of my case, as others have demanded, I'm not asking for a useless Pre-Settled status now (which is the likeliest outcome if I insist on quick resolution). I am asking for clarity on why they are keeping some applications on hold, and whether that means we might get Settled Status.
So no, I do not think I should have complained before, as I had no real grounds for a justified escalation.
My posts express what I believe are the facts, based on the best of my knowledge, about the topics discussed in this forum. They do not constitute immigration advice.
