Hello everyone,

I'm April 2018 application and only receive SA so far. I don't have much time to wait as we have a business in my home country. My application now is stuck in the middle of nowhere and I don't want to wait anymore. It has been many years since my last visit to my home country and I don't think I will wait anymore. I spoke with my sponsor and she agrees with me that we'll go to my home country and living there.

My question is, how can we withdraw our application and how long does it take to process so we can get back to my country?

Thanks everyone here and good luck with your application.
