Yes, the fresh application sounds interesting... I don't know anybody who waited longer. There is a process for writing a petition to the queen directly. The Home Office has a procedure for dealing with such petitions Don't know if anybody tried this process before. The Home Office can still not gi...

the idea of fresh application sounds interesting In my case as I am on my 15th month, will give them another2 months as the longest period of waiting I heard of was 17 months, Unless you guys know someone who waited longer? then if not hear from them by April I am considering the idea of a fresh ap...

Hard to say. Ilr is based on immigration rules and BC is based on nationality rules. Less documents needed for BC and the most obvious thing is that you can't do BC apps in person at a PEO. Good luck with your application and let us know what the outcome is. Thanks god you are all here otherwise I ...

Scares me: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-21170495 Well it says: The backlogs included people waiting a decade to hear if their partner had permission to live in the UK. you have applied for BC, this is not about you, you already hold ILR or ILE and are not waiting for a decision in order to live in ...

Congra...

Oh, thanks, I misread that. I tought the last post indicated that the charge was still on. In that case, it will do squat, it means nothing.

Thanks

Yes, he does not have a criminal record.

Thanks for the reply, he is saying , what about being charged for assault ? would that have an effect on his application?

I hope this helps some of those waiting. I was approved quite quickly - I am thankful as I missed the Xmas Dec 15th or so cutoff before UKBA shut down for Xmas. They seem to be back to work now. It's stressful dealing with government workers. The government worker themselves are the biggest part of...

Her naturalisation certificate is enough even without the certified copy of the passport. Certified copy of the passport alone is also enough. Thanks for the reply, what do you exactly mean? enough for NCS? so they do accept the certified copy? you mean Naturalization certificate on its own is good...
