Right guys, its been a long emotional road but its nearing the end
I emailed the North West Customer Complaints, which i think i found on here, on 13th July. I had completely forgotten i had done it until i received an email from them today.
They can confirm that instruction to ISSUE RC was made on 19th July 2011 & all our documents are in the Secure Holding Centre waiting to be despatched in the envelope provided.
So it seems McCarthy Judgement did not effect our application
Good luck to everyone who are still waiting & i will update once we actually have Passports back in our hands
