Re: To escalate or not to escalate.
UPS alerts are triggered, however I have heard that not all packages are triggered and they just show up at your door.
Are issue is we are no longer at the address as we sold our home..

Re: To escalate or not to escalate.
Hmmm! Could you contact the new owners in case it turns up there? That's what I'd do, for sure. Then hope that the package can in fact be redirected. That way, you'd be covering all your bases!

I also just got back from UPS and got their corporate number but apparently you can not change the address until the package is activated.
Unfortunately some posts I have read indicate the tracking number was not always activated and the package just shows up .. crazy

Our Realtor went over it with the buyers at closing on 12/28/18. I will contact her again as she was also our neighbor.

Well what a saga the new owners declined to sign for the package so I had to hunt down the UPS driver at a China wok parking lot.

Hope you have a good flight and a wonderful new beginning in the UK. I'm sure it'll be quite an emotional touchdown: it certainly will be for us! Congratulations again!

hi sammy2018,
quick question: did you use VFS to return your documents or UPS? Im confused as to which one is better to use. My package is over 2 lbs and the courier service for VFS only offers up to 2 lbs

Re: To escalate or not to escalate.
Hi everyone, Does anyone could help me explaining how do you guys ask UKVI for an escalation for a spouse visa ?
I've had applied for my visa in Brazil and Bio-metrics taken on the 26th march 2019. just got a SMS text from VFS saying my documents had been forwarded to UKVI.
in the VFS they said I should get a first email on the same or next day from UKVI saying they received my visa application and a second one when the decision was made.
but since then I never got one.
worried me and my husband decided to email them on the 1st April and got a reply saying " your application is being considered and is currently awaiting for a decision ". which was a relief that at least they got my documents and application.
but we paid for priority visa because we are in a delicate situation involved.
I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant and running out of time to take a flight back to England as everything is being planned and ready for the birth to be there.
can anyone give us a help ?
Thanks a lot!!
