Hi JandM and chrismwn,,,,
First of all thank you so much for going extra mile to help people in really tough situations
I have a question to ask (I know I'm thinking too much about it)
To explain my situation a bit
I have a immigration advisor working for me ,,, I lodged my application on 03/08/16 and got my file allocated on 19/11/16, he done employer questionarrie and asked for all verification stuff on same day of allocation, we replied back on 24nov. Then I received another mail on 19/12 and we replied back on 20/12.
And after that just got confirmation from him that he has received those docs and will add onto my file.....
And then we didn't received anything. On the day of allocation he suggested us that it's likely that he will finalise the decision within 12 weeks and on 11/02 it will be exactly 12 weeks and called inz they said my application is still under process.... "He might be waiting for some kind of verification to be done or waiting for some kind of documents before he can proceed further "!!!
My question is when I asked my lawyer to ask for an update all she did was instead of sending an email to co or calling him she called help desk and got the same reply that it's under process...... after reading so many threads from here all information I could gather was that the clerks don't get the latest info until the co adds it on screen,
WILL IT BE ALRIGHT IF I SEND HIM AN EMAIL AFTER COMPLETING 12WEEKS TIME ??? AS MY LAWYER SAID TO ME THAT IF WE SEND CO AN EMAIL FOR UPDATES, THEY WILL TAKE US AS SUSPICIOUS THAT WILL MAKE OUR LIFE MISERABLE WHICH WE DONT WANT TO HAPPEN???
Is that true??? And even she told me that she is not going to send any email or call him for any updates AT ALL!!! All she wants is to wait and hear from him
IS THAT TRUE GUYS??? IM VERY WELL AWARE THAT SMC ON THESE DAYS ARE TAKING 6/9 months till eventually but is there a HARM asking co for an update even for once??? And that's even after passing the given timeframe???
YOUR RESPONSE IS MUCH APPRECIATED
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP
