I had my 3 day at the end of October but my PO has not been able to confirm that my BI has started yet, which has me concerned.
I've just returned from living in the UK for a year and I was told that this could significantly slow down the BI process. Has anyone else encountered this?
Moreover, are our POs informed of our BI progress or are they just one step less in the dark than we are about the details of the process? |

What are the protocols on foreign travel to friendly countries (e.g. Canada and the UK) during the application process? I received my COE about 6 months ago and had my first 2 polys 4 months ago. I found out a few weeks ago that I need to come in for a 3rd poly, but they're so backed up that they may not be able to tell me when for weeks/months. My BI finished by mid december, and I went right into adjudication.
In the meantime, I had hoped to visit some school friends (American and British, all of whom were listed on my foreign contact list) abroad. I'm guessing that because I had been in adjudication, and because I need another poly, foreign travel would either complicate things way too much, or that my PO would simply tell me that I shouldn't go. I don't want to call to ask from fear that even asking would raise some kind of red flag on my app.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
