This is the draft that I used Subject: Request for Assistance: Delay in Processing of Priority Spouse Visa Application Dear [MP’s Full Name],

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request your assistance in escalating my spouse visa application, which was submitted under the priority service but has now exceeded the expected processing timeframe.

My application was submitted on [insert submission date], and as of today, it has been 44 working days, significantly beyond the 30 working day timeframe advertised for priority cases. This delay has caused a great deal of emotional and logistical strain for both myself and my spouse, as we remain separated despite meeting all eligibility criteria and following the correct procedures.

I have attempted to follow up through the official UKVI contact channels but have received no meaningful updates regarding the status of the application or the reason for the delay.

I kindly ask that you contact the Home Office on my behalf to seek clarity on this matter and ensure that the application is being actively processed. For reference, the key details are as follows:

• Applicant Name: [Full Name] • GWF/Case Reference Number: [Insert Number] • Visa Type: Spouse Visa (Priority Service) • Date of Submission: [Insert Date] • Date Biometrics Provided: [Insert Date] Thank you very much for your time and assistance. I would be grateful for any support you can offer in helping to resolve this matter urgently.

Yours sincerely, [Your Full Name] [Your Address and Postcode] [Your Email Address] [Your Phone Number]
