I have finally received the invitation letter today. Applied: 02/04/2020 Approval: 20/08/2020 by email Invitation: 21/11/2020 (date on letter 11/11/2020) Council: Manchester Ceremony: The phones line are not available during coronavirus. The website says there is no need to contact them and I will a...
Obviously my letter was sent to me on 11th this week. I’m wondering how long a second class letter can take? If it arrives soon might be worth changing to a private ceremony which is a lot sooner. Hi I know we have similar approval dates (3/8 me) How do you know it was sent on 11/11? I have sent an...

I applied on 2nd April and was put into the biometric reuse category. I opted out and went for the next day paid appointment to get the approval on 20th August. I've lost the gamble. I would have been better off opting in to get my approval in September. Rant over. I hope to get the invitation soon.

I am still waiting for invitation when got approval email on 18th august and my friend who got approved two weeks later in sep got his invitation letter already few days ago. We are living in same town and have same council so it seem there is no proper order of sending the invitation Same here 15 ...
Thank you to the person who updated me on the october intakes hope it sticks. I may have to leave the country for the next month since I cant handle the lockdown mentally (Im not joking I live by myself). Im an EU citizen with settled status i got the approval just waiting for ceromony. Can I leave...
The certificate is a paper document and will be sent by post. I think there is a requirement that the person has to be in the UK for the zoom ceremony. The most sensible thing for your friend is to do the ceremony on zoom in the UK, wait for the certificate to arrive at this home which is usually se...
post application sent: 18-12-19 Payment debited: 10-01-20 Date biometrics enrolled:17-01-20 Letter approval received via email: 14th October Invitation letter: waiting Thanks God , finally I got my approval yesterday after 10 months waiting it was so stressful . Plesae any idea about Liverpool city...
you are correct about the fact that only people who have applied and have done the biometric before the lockdown and got approved August/September have got the invitation letter. I applied just after the lockdown at the beginning of April and got approved in August. So I am still waiting for the in...
Guys i got an email from Home Office that my application has been succesful. Do i have to wait for another email for invitation ? My council is open but can i book ceremony without invitation email ? You have received an approval email. You will need to wait for an invitation letter in the post. No...
That is good to hear. I have always been under the impression that they start considering the application after the biometrics. Hi Fanta, may I ask you what additional supporting documents the HO asked you to provide? Thanks No additional document received. I opted out and went for a biometric appo...
The way I see it now is that a few weeks delay in approval doesn't really matter. The only advantage I have now is that I am a bit relaxed that the application is approved. I did had to spend £135 on appointment but I'd have got the same result by waiting a bit longer. With the Citizenship ceremonie...
I received the approval today. The attached letter seems to have a standard text "However, due to Government advice relating to Coronavirus (COVID 19), ceremonies are not currently taking place..." but it sounds like the ceremonies have resumed in some of the councils. I believe that what ...
The applications are definitely being processed. I am also within the "waiting for the app group" but got my solicitor got a call last week asking for some additional documents. So they are definitely reviewing the case. I submitted the documents through UKVCAS website once that option be...

I hope so. In normal circumstances, you can get the fee refunded if you have not already given your biometric information. So it may be a waste of effort for HO if they start processing the application and the applicant withdraws before the biometrics.

Agree you are right, but when I see people getting their application approved even though they applied more than month after me kind of frustrates me quite a lot. These kind of questions I would like to ask directly to UKVI AND UKVCAS but unfortunately they don’t give a damn about it. Waiting waiti...
