Miki, Worth mentioning how did you engage with local MP? What was the process? To engage local MP, I have googled local mp using area name and luckily found local mp's web site. Sent an email to MP with all details and attached scanned copies of all communications with HO (Home office). (1st Ref. l...
Yes, Miki finally you can go on long vacation....wait is over.. do you think because your local MP involved, you got the docs back quickly? VT Thanks VT_76.

Miki... CONGRATULATIONS... good on you for holding your nerves... your post is a great relief to many people who are waiting since long time as it has been recently frequently found that HO is misplacing docs or losing them or delaying them even after the approvals are done.. just the case like You...

Update related to Job hunting - Spoke to many agents and everybody told that they would like to see visa copy before making any offer / contract. It doesn't matter to them that legally you can work, all employers are interested to see visa copy and look for valid until date..... No need to worry now...

Hello Dahokolomoki, Thanks for your concern and suggestions. I understand that its my moral responsibility to disclose my visa status in advance but this will harm my all chances to schedule any interview as agent would not take any risk by forwarding my CV when they have plenty of choice of candid...

Could someone suggest any solicitor who can help and push my case so that atleast HO accepts that they lost my document and I can resubmit my application instead of keep on waiting. Is it worth to spend £75 for an appoinment and discuss my case with immigration solicitor ? Do I have any option to a...

Is there anyone / know someone who got new job while Tier1 extn. (or any visa category) application status is pending with HO and also current visa is expired? Is it really matters to new employer as status is pending with HO? Or Just few letters stating that application is pending with HO is more t...
My query is that "Will any employer be hesitant to give me any role as application is pending with HO" ? Yes, you are right about that. Most employers will not take the risk of giving you a long-term job when your application with UKBA could go either way. You will probably lose the job t...
Thanks VT_76. That's right atleast I got some updates and exact reason behind delay. Just don't understand what are the options I have ? Or Should I just wait for the next reply from HO. Can you contact the person who wrote you? Write a letter explaining that you need it to take new contract work A...
