Yung sponsor should email yung local MP. Some really help some not so much but it wouldnt hurt to give it a try. You have everything to gain and nothing loose ika nga diba.
Here's the site to find your local MP. All you need is the sponsors postal code and it will tell you who the MP
is for that location.
They will email back and verify that you belong to their district by asking for the full address. The link will have the information that you need to contact the local MP.
I suggest sa subject line use something like this:
Please help, petitioning my husband/wife from the Philippines and thy were affected by the recent typhoon.
Then do a brief message to the MP pleading your case.
You may include the following information para maka contact sila sa CEM:
UCI #
Sponsors Name
Sponsors DOB
Applicants Name
Applicant DOB
From there the MP can contact someone from the immigration.
Be extra nice, it goes a long way.
Good luck! I hope you find my reply helpful
