Hi,
my agent sent an email to the case officer processing my partner application that my partner has completed a medical examination and ask the case office to expedite visa application process as is been almost six months that I gave birth.

This was the reply that
was sent back..

UNCLASSIFIED


Thank you for your email and for this update.

Your request to expedite the process has been forwarded to a decision maker for consideration.

Regards,”

My question is? Does this email means that, my partner visa application is at a decision making stage? How long does it usually take to hear from the decision maker.

Thank you for replies and opinion

No, means they will consider.

But birth is not a factor to expedite processing.

If birth is in a "declared" war zone it can be a factor.

I have the reply from the "Office of Prime Minister" and Cabinet - Crimea and Eastern Ukraine and MH 17 was not a valid consideration to expedite applications.

It means that the request has been sent to someone higher up for a decision. Unless there are exceptional circumstances it is unlikely that your application will be prioritised.

Is there any example of "exceptional circumstances" ?
Accidents, serious illness in the family, natural disasters...

No there is no exceptional circumstances.

The interview went so quick after we lodge the application. He had his interview two month exactly after we lodge the application in June 2017. Interview was in August 2017 then after everything slowed down. I believe everything is okay since there is no questions till date. Hope he get his visa soon
