Hi everyone, hoping for some advise on this,

Sadly, my wife passed on exactly 1 year ago. We had completed our EE application in March 2021 and she was the primary applicant.

Although, I informed the consultant who worked with us on the applicant and sent him the death certificate (I wasn’t emotionally able to handle chasing the application then), I haven’t heard much since then.

I'm now trying to get the primary applicant status changed to myself; how should I go about doing this?

So sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine your pain. Unfortunately as already said, you need to start your PR from scratch. You cannot become the Principal Applicant. If your consultant sent your spouse’s certificate then your application would be cancelled.
