Additional Processing l1

07-29-2004, 11:15 AM

It's now been five weeks since the interview wheer I was advise that
they wanted to do 'additional administrative processing'.

I've got the
MP, congressman, attorney writing to the embasy, but nothing, just that
standard email reply ' your application is pending we will revert to you
when we need more info etc'.

Any ideas on what next?

Yes I know Carl very well. Strictly
speaking it will be five months for me in fifteen weeks time.

I am
looking for any other advice about how we can tackle the beaurocratic
blackhole that is the London consulate.

The London consulate appears to
be happy to do this more than the Indian, Canadian consulate, even more
than Beijing.

Tackle in what sense? What do you mean? In what sense is
it a black hole?

Happy to do what? What are you talking about?
