Hello,
Has anyone on this forum ever filed a Complaint with the Chancellor of Justice or the Ombudsman for the Parliament for a delayed application with Migri? Which one of the two would respond to a Complaint faster and which one would be more helpful?
Thanks in advance for your help.

On what basis?
The residence permit on other grounds has an expected processing time of about 4-8 months, and no maximum processing time.

Intimate relationship. The current estimate is 15 months. We have been waiting for around 13 months (my other post said 3 months; that's a typo, and I fixed it now). Migri is useless when we call or email them.

Re: Chancellor of Justice/Ombudsman Complaint on Migri Delay
Processing times of over a year were common even for spouse residence permits before a recent change of the law limited these to 9 months.
Citizenship applications currently have an expected processing time of 31 months.
The time you are waiting is not exceptionally long, and there is no maximum processing time in the law.
The actual legal obligation for Migri is to prioritize applications that might otherwise exceed their maximum processing time over your application.
Migri has a backlog of ten thousands of applications, if you think someone will make your application skip the queue and give it immediate processing after you wrote you complaint then you are mistaken.
