Not without withdrawing your application, if it hasn't already been decided on.bobby80gh wrote:I applied for ILR based on 10 yrs long residence last week. On Friday I had a 6 months consultancy contract which requires me to work out of the country. The problem is now I do not have a passport as I have posted my passport to the home office together with my ILR application. I want to find out if my MP can help me get my passport and ILR within the next two weeks as I am require to start this contract in two weeks time. I am UK tax payer and beside the country will also benefit if I am able to work on this contract. I have spent the last two months trying to secure this contract and it will be so sad to let this contract slip away because of passport. This world is not fair.
There are millions and millions of UK taxpayers like you.bobby80gh wrote:I applied for ILR based on 10 yrs long residence last week.

You might be wrong. I will get my passport back in two weeks with my ILR and I will scan you a copy. On paper they say the law is no respecter of persons but in reality it is. Celebrities are most often spare jail sentence because of their status. What you have to know is to every rule there is an exception.asim72 wrote:There are millions and millions of UK taxpayers like you.bobby80gh wrote:I applied for ILR based on 10 yrs long residence last week.

Immigration applications are decided under immigration rules, and not on the general principle of "benefit of the country".
Now, you have two choices, and only two choices.
1. Ask for the return of your passport. Once they return your passport, your application is automatically treated as withdrawn.
2. Wait until UKBA makes a decision.
Once again, only two choices, not three choices. You MP or Prime Minister or Queen Elizabeth II will not be able to help you, apart from the two choices I have already mentioned.
