Morden exploratory visit

[Carltonjean]

Can anyone other than target occupation apply for exploratory visit to Morden?

 

[Wotsit]

Yes but you will need an express entry profile.
The target occupations are the areas in which there is more demand but I know they consider other applicants.

 

[Carltonjean]

Thanks. Are you in Morden now?

 

[Wotsit]

No but I have been supported by Morden and received nomination just yesterday.
I think the eligibility has now changed and they are only accepting applications from those in target occupations but I'm not 100% on this.

Hi mate, I've done my Skype interview last week, my question is how long should I wait for an invite for Exploratory visit. I worried because maybe they will postpone due to Corona virus issue.

Congratulations, you can probably see from the other thread you posted in that many have been rejected without an interview.

Panel members get to look at your application and answers to your Skype interview. How long you have to wait to find out depends on when the panel next meets, for me it took a month for the decision.

After this it depends on how soon you want to do the EV it's your choice mostly.

With the Coronavirus you might be offered an MPNP interview without an EV, someone spoke of this in another thread but I'm not sure.

Thank you @Wotsit. That would be a better option. Hopefully to meet you soon in Morden. Cheers

You could probably message Morden immigration and ask if it's possible.
I believe that in the next couple of months international travel will reopen if you can wait a bit longer I recommend the EV it's well worth it.

Shelly said they are on lockdown again few days ago. No EV arrangements for now. So we are asked to wait. Only biometric no medicals.

It took 3 weeks for approval though it was in February that I applied but couldn't submit passport due to lockdown. Just submitted mine and my spouse this month and took another 3 weeks for passports stamping. Applied from Nigeria
