EEA 4 - Same Day Service - MIRACLE from God !!!

[donpepe]

From all my research on the internet,I think I am the first person to write about this.I am ONLY writing this for those who might be at sometime in a SIMILAR situation. It is not meant to abuse it,because due to previous abuse of the system by other applicants,I almost paid a heavy price- Not attending my dad's funeral.
I made my application for EEA 4 sometime in September,there was no rush,our holidays were meant to be in January,so I was pretty sure I was going to get the EEA 4 stamp b4 then,in the worst case scenario I will cancel our holidays.
Unfortunately,I got a shocking and unexpected message - I lost my father. (In october).
I am the first son.By African tradition,I must be there,I have to pay my dad that last respect. I was confused and didnt know what to do as I checked everything possible and best option was to request for the documents back,which the HO will send back gladly and fast,however my Residence Card (5yrs) expired in July. So my passport returned is as good as nothing because if I eventually travel with it,I will be let out,however,entry back in to UK is 100% impossible.
Someone advised me to use MP,I made an appointment straightaway on a Friday (luckily). Explained the situation to the MP and they were to send the request for a swift decision making the following monday which they did.
In this time,burial had been set for mid November(due to my absence and hope that I would make it at least by then).Time now is late October.
Four days later,came my package,opened it,empty passport with a letter.Letter stating that here is my passport to enable me travel for the funeral,upon my return I should submit a list of documents (exactly same as I had just sent in) within 21 days for my application to be reconsidered.
I was furious,called the MP,they asked them for a swift decision ,not to return my documents. Anyway,MP rang back to HO,they(HO) said that I had incomplete documentation(a lie), and that the letter they wrote me should be sufficient enough for me to gain back entry to UK(another lie).
We decided to resend the documentation afresh and this time for the MP to follow up straight away. Resent application ,called the MP, MP crap office failed to follow up on numerous occasions,just to give them a call and provide them with my tracking number so they can allocate a caseworker and act on it immediately. MP will either say they will get back to me or no one ever answered a call and hence,I was left desperate.Almost two weeks gone after I resent application second time.
4 days left to the burial.
Fraustrated and knowing fully well,I have nothing to loose at this point in time,I and my wife headed for Liverpool that morning to the HO personally.
I am sure everyone knows that applications for EEA never provide same day service. I got there my wife outside in a car park.Got to security was asked if had an appointment,I said yes. Let me through,had no clue as to where to go further.I was then called by a lady in plain clothes at reception as she saw I was lost. And asked me who I came to see.I was at first reluctant to start wasting time narrating to a receptionist what I came there for,as she might not understand how desperate I am.She insisited,I started reluctantly,she asked for my name,put into the system and saw that I had been sent my documents back,but I told her that my stay was expired and if I should travel,I cant come back in.and that I have resent my application afresh now.She told me to hold on and made a phone call,after a couple of minutes,she told me that at this moment a caseworker is looking at mt file and that at some point today,a DECISION would be made. WOW !!!!! This was even better than I expected! God is wonderful! She told me to sit down and wait,which I gladly did. After a while(about 10 mins),I realised that she didnt even take my tracking number,I went back to her and said maybe she needs it and she told me that a caseworker is looking at it already.Hmmm.Ok,I asked for permission to dash out to notify my wife at the car park to relax in a nearby cafe,and I was allowed. I ran out and came back within max of 10 mins. At the reception,this kind,beautiful and nice lady told me that my PR has been granted!!! It would take about an hour to process it and stamp it,I went and waited people and she brought my stamped passport and my wife's PR card.
This is the work of the Lord Almighty!!! This lady does not know what she has done for me.It is a miracle.
I had gone for my fathers burial and now I am back.I want to thank God first of all and all the rest who helped assisted in this process.
