my MP sent letter to the visa office a week ago and there's still no answer, is that normal to ignore MP's letters?
On October 23rd when I spoke to my MP's office they told me that on Monday October 26th they would get in contact with London. My MP told me that if I do not hear anything from her by Friday October 30th then I should get in contact with my MP to see what is going on. On Friday October 30th I waited all day by 2:45PM I still did not hear anything. At that time I called my MP's office but the person that was dealing with my case was not in at that time so I sent her an email. An hour later she emailed me back with London's response.

Suin, I suggest that if you have waited for a week and have not heard back from your MP that you get in contact with your MP and ask them what's going on.

thank you for your reply, SadGirl:(. the matter is that we are constantly in touch with our MP, but they haven't heard from visa office for a week already. it looks like the visa office ignoring them. I really do not know what to do, as the matter our MP contacted them about is really important.

From what I understand, it depends on what you think the problem is.

MPs cannot make CIC work faster. MPs cannot change the decisions made by CIC.

MPs can ask CIC what issues there might be that are holding up the application beyond the posted timeline.
