Hi guys I need a bit of advice...my application is a few days over 6 months now. I rang two days ago and the contact centre rang me back today only to say that "you have passed the initial checks but unfortunately you have fallenin the category of the 5% who take longer than 6 months" pri...

Agree Simon I think they have three teams to process an application. First it goes to a team that does fees debit, this happens for all, here services levels are strictly followed, as its income to HO Second it goes to a team for background check Third all successfull applications should gets assig...

Congratulations!!! God works in mysterious ways

^^^ thank you. The caseworker will say the same thing to a lawyer that she told me so no point really. Plus, I want my documents back asap. I need to have my ILR stamped on my passport as my passport was stolen in 2012. Yes sadly I was coming back from a job interview and some silly muffin stole my...

I have emailed the caseworker to send me the decision asap instead of waiting till 08/05 as I do not have any more documents to send to her. I have posted the SAR form and that will take time to arrive. I am aware that it will be a refusal. I only wish that the HO had sent me the refusal last year ...

Involvement MP is a just a wast of time. Secondly I was already mentioned in my previous post we are the third category human in this country. Just because we are migrants or refugee's. I was waiting since last year February 2014 now running in 15 month. And still waiting for decision. Let's see th...

That's excellent!! So even the college gets banned after we left we can still prove that we went there using the documents which were submitted with our old application? Quite superb, love this forum wahey!!

I sent letters of enrolment from the school from 2008-2011. I also sent the qualification I achieved. I also sent confirmation of progress from the school. I have been working in the field in I studied for since 2012; I have also since become a member of the body I studied for. I have asked her to ...

(1)Even though his ILR was granted early July last year, his 3 years residence as married to a BC would be 2nd June 2015 so can we apply from then or is it paramount that it has to be a ful...

Congratulations Nowa! I'm startled that HO didn't tell you the decision over the phone.

First of all thanks for the replaying, My partner has been in this country for 12 years and never left the UK because he didn't had the papers. Last year 6 March 2014 he won the papers with court (because the HO was taking so long to give him an answer so for this reason he decided to go to court) ...

Sharing the world has never been humanity's defining attribute. Wishing you all the best as well carinoso_yo!

Oh god am going to lose my head. She just replied Dear Mrs xxxx Thank you for your email. The documents you have provided have been thoroughly assessed. Unfortunately we are unable to accept bank statements, or individual letters relating to your studies as they do not provide an overall picture of...

Sweet thanks dear nationalityman, As I mentioned in my previous message the MP refused to help and asked me to leave the surgery just because I told her that I am not satisfied about the delay caused by the HO in processing my application. She the (MP) was rude, I was shocked and did not expect I w...

“99.5% of non-complex nationality applications are currently processed within 6 months. ”

Personally, I would play safe and return for verification. But something doesn't seem to add up. Why would someone deliver a false passport? Is this your first British passport or a renewal and did you apply through the official Passport Office? Unless they are con and created a duplicate copy and ...

I have broken immigration rules by visiting my country of birth for 220 days in 25 years of residing in the UK of which I 've had ILR since 1999. Also this was my only time to have left the UK shores since setting feet here. I cannot believe this is a basis for judging good character..... ridiculou...

Please help me! I've been refused citizenship on character. And the reason given was because I entered my country of birth with my Travel document when I should not have. Does anyone know of someone who has successfully appealed this? Please help Hi Liverpool 2005, Can you elaborate more, please? K...

11 months wait! There's always hope my friends

Hi Long Residence,

I'm really sorry to hear about it.

Did you mention about the deception allegations in your application for Naturalisation?

Hope some senior member shed some light on your case but please don't wait and get a layer lawyer ASAP!

Kind regards,
Siraj

I've realised If we are not able to wait in a queue far beyond the point that any sane person would reasonably do so, then we don't have what it takes to be British. We are allowed to cough and look around, raising your eyebrows at other people in the queue, but not actually allowed to complain :mrg...

Thank you so much Waiz89k, I will request FOI and let's see what they come up with!

Excellent find and great read Waiz.

Thanks a lot again Waiz, you're a star! Their website says that I cannot request personal information though.. "Can I request information about myself? No!" Reading the previous case, HO doesn't disclose any personal information due to data protection act and only says if case is decided o...
