Just wondering if it makes sense to put a Urgent request now since I am basically at the last step now, my manager has been asking the team recently about the travel ability and he is making plans accordingly, seems like I am missing out on some good opportunities because of my situation. I can ask my boss to send me a email and then send that as a proof for urgent request, will it work?

If you can do it, you should. I read a poor dude waited 12 months between DM and Oath the other day. Not Surrey office tho.

It definitely isn't based on country, as I have been told FP requests come if your name is quite common and their is some confusion with file, i might be wrong though
Definitely not
My name is unique only 2 out of a million have it and I got the FP request

I will ask my MP for support on this and if he doesnt agree then i will apply on my own for Urgent processing, thanks I guess it does make sense since you can never predict when things will get done.

Lucky you !
Only 2 month from Test to DM.
I had to wait 5.
Now who can guess how long should we wait for Oath ?
I also tried that email yesterday, no response yet.
