I will have to apply for HSMP before 31st, Jan. The trouble now is I went to embassy for a new passport, which should have be returned to me in Dec, However, these useless idiots issued a new one to me with SOMEBODY ELSE'S PHOTO!

I can do nothing but wait.
I have to go for urgent application for both HSMP1 and FLR(HSMP). It seems I have to post these 2 forms at the same time, otherwise I will be staying illegally ( Visa expires on 31st, Jan, 2008) But can could I send FLR form without a reference No. and approval letter? How does it work?
How fast will the urgent application be processed?
