We have long applied for SMC Residence Visa since 2012.
Lodged our ITA on 29th of October 2012 in shanghai branch.
but since we both work here in UAE, the application was transferred to London Branch last april.
last month our CO emailed us asking for the primary applicants' previous job contact details
and some additional proof that we have been living together for more than 12 months.
now we have sent her everything, including the evidences and she replied that it will be looked through
once there is a NEW CASE OFFICER assigned.
We are quite not sure how this CO thing works and why our application seems to take longer than any other
application? how many CO are supposed to handle one application?
our application will count 1 year next month since we lodged our ITA.
