Wording help please?

Hi,

Would you please advise if I have used these words correctly?


Let us proceed the process. (Continued)

Your case has been [ proceeded / processed ]. ("Continued and handled" both are correct here?)

If you wish to [ process / proceed ] you would need to complete these forms. ("Continued and handled" both are correct here?)


Cheers

John AkiLet us proceed the process.
Your case has been proceeded.

No. "proceed" is an intransitive verb. Transitive use can occasionally be found (e.g. a judge is said to "proceed" a case), but this is apparently non-standard or jargon.

John AkiLet us continue the process.
Your case has been processed/handled.
