Rejected petition Let Erika Hoganson Attend Her Grandma's 100th Birthday

More details

For the past three months, I have been waiting on my outstanding visa application so that I can start my new job based in London. The Home Office does not normally let people waiting for their visa to travel outside of the UK (they are in possession of my passport) but my grandmother's 100th birthday is in a month.

Please support my plea to attend the once in blue moon family event in Detroit Michigan, USA. I'm not asking to jump the queue for my application, just the chance to celebrate my wonderful and inspirational grandmother in person without jeopardizing my visa application.

Thank you!

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

This is a personal issue and therefore cannot be the subject of an e-petition.
