I think we should write an email to Minister stating that we are AEO cases and we value same as any Ministerial Instructions.
Look guys, there is no doubt that they have put us on hold and moving no with MI2 and soon there will MI3. I am sure minister would know that there would be many applications of AEO in the lot they put on hold.
"If you won't shout you are not going to be treated well" This is strategy in today's world.
I am going to write him but, only 1 move won't make any difference. There is still 2-3 weeks of time for a new MI to come and if will write him now, who knows the minister would give a new instruction to all visa offices to process AEO cases in MI1 lot with MI3.
