Hi. I am American I applied for A UK fiance visa in June 09. My fiance is British,and all we have recieved is an acknowledgement that they have recieved the application. When contacting world bridge services we get a standard response that the application is being escalated,but I did this twice and got the same email. I'm worried incase they have lost my application,and don't understand why it's taken this long. Almost 6 months,is there anywhere I can get in touch with them? Any advice. Kristen.
Kristen, don't worry. When I filed an application a few years ago, it took 11 months. Like you, I started to get nervous. But I used an immigration attorney that specialized in fiance visas. Not some guy/lady on a marriage agency website that charges a ridiculous fee. It was worth it.
You just have to make sure all your i's are dotted and t's crossed. If not, they will send back the application and tell you to start over. I met someone that filled out his application himself and left out one item. After nine months, they sent back the application and he had to start over.
