This month's trend is EAA, dependant and spouse applications receive quick approvals whilst tier based applicants had none as of the moment.

It has always been vice versa until September, will never understand HO system..

Call me Paranoid but will they contact you if there is something they don't understand (or with my writing that they can't read) and looking over the blank form I'm worried that there are a few sections that I can't remember filling out (probably just paranoid) but if by some oversight I have missed anything will they query or automatically reject ? Also I have read that you can write to them to expedite your application does anyone have experience of doing this and did it work ? Ideally i want my application to come through in the next few days as I need to go on a course on the 16th November and I have to be a British Citizen to sit this course.
