QUESTION: Have made an application 18 months ago under the skilled worker
category with the London Visa Office an am continually monitoring the CIC
web-site to view status and application waiting times. I am frustrated to
see that these projections are increasing mainly due to my age as I am now
41 and worry about what age I may be if or when residency is granted. Are
there any other routes that could be considered i.e. Is it possible to
employ the use of any legal organisation to attain work placement and handle
the legalities of attaining some kind of temporary work status so as may try
to build some foundation for permanent residency. If so can you inform
myself of any that you have positive experience of and would recommend.
Obviously any other advice would be greatly welcomed as I do want jeopodize
the progression of my current application, many thanks and regards.
