What do I do now?????
« on: September 11, 2018, 05:44:28 PM »
97 BD.... I just don't know what to do or what to think.  I feel like does this mean we're going to be denied? Is that why it's taking so long? What else are they looking through? What didn't we put in our application? Has anyone heard of a spousal visa taking this long?

Anyone's advice would be a comfort at this point.

You did priority correct? There was another person on the forum who waited about 87BD on priority and they had an approval. The reason it took so long was that their Priority application was processed as non-priority. I'm no expert, but perhaps you've been struck with the same sort of bad luck?

Hi there!

No we didn't do priority.. at the time we were advised that since I had a previous refusal to not spend the money on it as it would probably take the full 12 weeks anyway. But now we are well past even that point.

It literally could come any time now. Try to hang in there.  :-\\\\

As futile as it is you can work through MP but expect it to take a month. The results are mixed. I don’t think it moves things along typically. But in my case, I was supposed to be priority and they processed standard. Wouldn’t have known this had the MP not reached out. I think once the person writing back to the MP looked into it and found the error, they fast tracked it. Shipped the day after I received the MP letter.
