Re: Letter from MP..

Post by zeezeezee » Thu Jul 19, 2012 11:07 am

Hi,
Applied from Hyderabad too.

I contacted the MP she called the UKBA up my hubby (WaliMeer on the forum) and he got the visa a week later- Guess what they stamped it the day that my mp called- i think they processed it quickly.
!!!

So i'd highly recommend it once you hit 60 days.

My wife submitted the settlement application on 10th May from Hyderabad, India, We haven't heard anything yet, it's over 2 months
Can we send an email to the counsulate and find out what's happening, has anyone got there email address,
If get a letter from my local MP in UK do you think what will speed up the process,
any comments much appreciated,
Thanks in advance.

hahahaha....its so good to see the life back in you with so much happiness!!

I am surprised that they didnt post it until now though?

My husband and I wrote to our MP again and hoping that she can get back to us by tomorrow. Otherwise, like you said, we will until 60 days which is coming up very soon and then put pressure on her to get something done from UKBA!

I feel so very happy for you two!! :):)

Applied 1st May 2012 - Mumbai South
@nitas@d4rmc- I had applied from Pune but it goes to Mumbai south for processing, I got the visa in 58 workings days and when I had called them they told me that the current processing time is 62 days, therefore I think you should wait until that time.

Hi zeezeezee,

Can u let us know what is the process that u have followed to make MP call UKBA.
zeezeezee wrote:Hi,
Applied from Hyderabad too.

I contacted the MP she called the UKBA up my hubby (WaliMeer on the forum) and he got the visa a week later- Guess what they stamped it the day that my mp called- i think they processed it quickly.
!!!

So i'd highly recommend it once you hit 60 days.

any comments much appreciated,
