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?

Was that meant to be helpful?

What should I do in five months then?

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?
