whats going on in London immigration!!!
 
Been reading through some of your threads about timescales for PR.
Well im astonished on how long people have to wait for a CO,the ones with a job offer anyway,some people are gettin CO with no job offer and 140 points and others havent heard a thing and they got 160+ points and a job offer and nothing :eek: Surely there is a system in place over there.
Not knocking anyone who has heard very quickley but the ones who have gone to alot of trouble and secured a job offer and are at risk of losing the offer cause immigration in London cant be bothered to check peoples files!!! The whole system bewilders me :huh::huh:

They recieved our ITA on 8th May and we still havn't heard a thing and our job offer is for Aug. Feel in limbo, I emailed them a month ago and was told we are in the system. Would this be a reason to call the head chappie or does anyone have any other ideas. Like you I have read on here that some have heard already and they were recieved after us:confused:

Hi there - it may be wise to give them a ring - especially with your job offers pending!
Good Luck!

Hang in there! Be strong...

I just want to say that NZIS London are lucky that I wasnt living in London and that the trains B'ham-London dont come cheap otherwise I would have camped in their waiting lounge!!!

Sis got CO now but her hubby's date to start work has passed,i just hope they get their butts in gear as losing a job offer cause of London immigration would be heartbreaking for her and she has waited so long and gone through the mill a bit,as im sure you all are!
