I applied on the 28th of May, HO received on the 29th. Biometrics were done in June. I've seen people before me and after me get approved. And I still haven't heard anything back. So I continue to wait patiently and let them get on with it. Everyone should just relax, take it easy and let them do th...

Hi everyone, I've a question, I've applied on May 5th using NCS but till now I didn't receive an approval letter. During that time, I've moved to another address and I've used the HO online service to change my address on the application. I'm not sure how can I verify that my address has been reall...

So is that only the ceremony appointment that needs to be sorted within 21 days not the ceremony itself? How much is the maximum time allowed between the approval letter and the ceremony itself? I recall 3 months (from reading on this forum), but I suggest you do your own searches and possibly call...

Cnicola78, Yes I know you can travel, but what if you received the approval letter the day you fly out and failed to book your ceremony in next 21 days. You'll return to find the approval letter along with a rejection letter as well. Not that they'll email you your approval letter so you can access...

Who, here, lives in the Islington North constituency? Please raise the chaos and careless service going on at Home Office with the new Labour Leader (Jeremy Corbyn). He seems a fair guy.

It seems like HO have put aside the applications from end of April and first 2 weeks of May....for now. Not necessarily. I applied 28th May, HO had my application 29th. Did biometrics 20th June. Still haven't heard anything - but people with a very similar timeline to mine have had approval. It all...

Hi All, Can someone help me out to complete the AN form? I am a director of my limited company. I am not sure whether I will have to enter the details of being a director of my company for the question 1.53 Employment History. Can someone help me out? The guide for Form AN states: "1.48- 1.53 ...

Hi I submitted my application on 28th April 2015 for naturalisation through NCS. I used the march 2015 application form. Wondering if this is correct application form at that time!. I can see a new version may 2015 now. Was there any modified version in april 2015 that I missed. Please help. If som...

Also please mention whether they are calendar days or business days.

Thanks,

Scroll up in the forum, I answered this a few days ago for someone else: "15 working days"

Go to a Post Office that offers the service, take £19.80 and smile at the camera, take your ten fingers, and sign your name...within 15 working days from the date on the letter.

Simples.

Realistically, I am expecting a reply late August early September. And I applied on 8th of May. From the minute the caseworker starts dealing with an application, it shouldn't take them longer than a week. All personal info about applicants is a phone call away or it can be obtained online. I agree...

I find it really interesting how a lot of people who applied w/c 25th May onwards are progressing as expected, i.e. received acknowledgement, biometrics, etc. but people who applied prior to that week are having a rough time with getting anything. It must really be driven by the caseworker's desk th...

Now the real wait begins :D I hope we get the outcome in next 4 week. I have few trips lined up later in September and dont wanna pay for schengen visa. At least you are exempted from it. 4 weeks would be nice, although I'm not really fussed. I don't have much need for my passport or a UK passport ...

I don't understand why people book trips, where they need to use their passport, when they are having to submit passports as part of their application? Or why not use the NCS? I mean let's be honest, they do say it could take up to 6 MONTHS . Don't you think you should allow for worst case scenario?...

R1013X, what was the letter of acknowledgment saying exactly? Hi aroca, Literally just a simple email acknowledging that they have "logged a naturalisation application" on their systems for me on the 29th May 2015. Confirmation that the prescribed fee was withdrawn on the 10th June 2015. ...
