Finally received my approval today @1200, just to encourage all to be patient we will all get a decision.
Do you mean email approval?

Re: General discussion on naturalization applications

It looks like that HO has stopped sending email approval.

Last approval reported on this forum was on 25 August.

Has any one received an email confirmation about citizenship application since 26 August?

Re: **** COVID19 Biometrics appointments and UKVCAS ***** (Discuss here ONLY)

In my personal opinion, now the decisions maybe a little delayed given the number of applicants invited for biometrics recently. I believe timeline for decisions have nothing to do with providing biometrics via UKVCAS or IDV. Previously who submitted biometrics via UKVCAS were a small group as majo...

Another way to make that more public and open some eyes ,we can make a hashtag on twitter and @ the home office and all who should be hearing us .

Just my own opinion.
It might be a good idea if we all use the exact hashtag, so that it can reach media/HO. Any suuegestion?
