The annoying thing is we are still looking at around 3 months wait:
complain to UKBA-20 days wait
complain to MP-20 days wait
complain to ombudsman -20days wait

Dammit theres no bloody way around these horrendous waiting times!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Nah I made countless of complaints first then I ask my mp to contact ombudsman mp was being negative as if contacting ombudsman won't help so I did it myself.

Today make it One Year and 4 days i did Biometric and still yet no decision.
Only a letter from UKBA 2 weeks ago that my application is now under active consideration. And a letter last week referring me to social and Hospital and suicide adviser group which i don't even bother cos thats not what i apply for, because i told them i'm feeling depress.

Since then i've not got any decision yet. I'm really fed up and am tired of everything now. No post man again today.

Thinking maybe i should withdraw my application.

The UKBA officer who sent me a letter said he can confirm that my application is now under active consideration and that he can also assure me that all my documents and references will be considered before a decision is taken on my application. It was after this my Solicitor got angry with me for making complain to the UKBA by myself.

I've even contacted Ombudsman by email, but no response for over 2 weeks now. My MP is not even respond anymore.

But since then i did not receive any decision yet than the reply from UKBA that my application is under active consideration and can assure that my documents and references will be considered before a decision is taken.. I'm tired.

What should i do now?

Should i withdraw my application as am really fed up and tired, bored and feeling depress.

NO hun!!!! Just hang in there for a little bit longer!!! You are nearly at the end of this wait-of-horror, so surely another week or 2 wont matter too much hey.... Especially as you have been told your application is now under active consideration, you will be receiving good news before you know it!!!! Fingers crossed its only a matter of few days now!!!!

As verbina said, if you are working legally then you are ok (routine identity check) but if you are not supposed to be working and you are, then I suppose a miracle is all you need cos that's a serious offence. There is nothing God cannot do #Faith.

Yes i did. They are stronger than the UKBA if u can be patient for their response. UKBA will only continue scoping you. But with Ombudsman, they will take action according to many people thats did same..

Discretionary Leave to Remain

Post by shairee_mashriq » Tue Jul 23, 2013 3:41 pm

Dear Friends:

I need a favour, any one of you who has filed a complaint to UKBA, for unreasonable delay.

Please copy me a sample complaint letter on the forum or feel free to pm me as I am planning to write a letter to UKBA and to my local MP.

Any draft letter for the MP will be a bonus too, please forward me a copy of that letter too.


Your Cooperation will be highly appreciated, my formal English writing is very poor and I can not afford a legal representative at this stage.


Looking forward for any kind response. I applied in January 2013 no reply not even a biometric letter.


My time line is as following

Application Made in January 2013 for the extension of Discretionary Leave to Remain.

No response from UKBA except Acknowledgement letter dated
Feb 2013.[/size]
