its easy .find your local Member of Parliament. go to his office. actually receptionist will help you to sent a email to Colombo office. you need your full name your spouses full name, File number or UCI number and.date of birth
Just wanted to clarify that an MP will be able to provide you with some basic information on the status or your application but can not speed up processing time or change chances of approval. Really best used if there is a problem or have exceeded the given timeframe in my opinion.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too and everyone else in this forum. Hopefully we will spend the next and all the rest of our thanksgivings with our families!
@hopefulcanuck1 i've seen you applied on May 2016. almost 1 and 1/2 years, why that much long time.Did you ever contact with the embassy? i was wondering about how long is a typical timeline

Hi, yes we did contact the HC and they just said it is within the normal processing time. Like @yoge said, current processing time is 20 months, and my application falls under the older system... but hopefully the long wait is almost over.

Seems like the applications are moving faster for people who applied under the revised system after Dec 2016.

Good Luck!
