Any progress? Im in the same boat..except the eligibility criteria as a spouse of British national..please let me know if you get updated..thanks Had a phone call from HO, the adviser basically said that my application is processed from the date they received my new English language test - which wa...

I'm also a January applicant (6th Jan).

Emailed my local MP this week to contact the HO on my behalf - hoping for a decision by next month (?)

ps: EU applicant with PR certificate

Is there anyone yet who submitted a new English language test and received an approval?

I submitted a new test certificate in May and am still waiting - 6th January applicant... will be 6 months next week.

"Update: ESOL B1 Certificate receipt: 20/05/2014" Why is this? Did HO ask for this? HO sent me a letter in March informing me that my application has been put on hold (ETS suspension) and I can choose to take a new test which will "enable them to progress my application". I had ...

Hi everyone on this forum. I sent an email earlier today on 17/03/14 to HO (nationalityhelpdesk@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk) asking status of my application and they replied the same day: "I have checked our records and can confirm a decision has been made on this application, the decision letter an...

Me too - app received 6 Jan... straightforward case.

I called them today as well - "the application is with the team".

Then I asked her if it's been allocated to a caseworker yet. She said she is not able to answer that as the information she has access to is quite limited...

Usually they send all documents (minus the application form and payment) back to you after they've made a decision.

Thanks, that sounds reassuring! Hope a decision is made soon - as they hold no other documents to send back.

Hi All, Just a quick question about documents. I've applied for naturalisation in early January 2014 - requested my passport back from HO late Jan. I received my passport today in the post but what is puzzling is that they also sent my PR doc (EEA certifying permanent residence) along with it (I onl...
