Hi,
I am rather confused this morning. I have taken time to read through a lot of posts but can't seem to find a definitive answer.
My partner and I attended a 'fast track' appointment last week for my American girlfriend to apply for ILR based on our unmarried partnership status and following on from her previous 2 year visa status as unmarried partners.
We were told all our paperwork was in place and everything was fine. However, the officer said a 'flag' had shown up on his system which had to be checked by another dept. He kept all out papers including her passport. I believe I know what this flag is but I also know the issue was completely resolved around 1 year ago.
My question really is, how long will this process take?
My partner has no passport, no visa. She called immigration this morning and was told it will take up to 6 months!
6 months!? what can possibly take 6 months? what do we do in the meantime? she has no passport and no visa and so cant travel or work.
Do they really mean 6 months or is that what they say to everybody to stop people nagging them every day?
Thanks for any advice you may have.
Chris
