Re: Naturalisation application processing timelines (only)

I thought they would have done these checks everytime you apply for a UK visa/ILR and those applications are processed much quicker and in order of application date, but the naturalisation applications tend to be processed in a random order which no one seems to know why?!

Speed of applications

Hi all,

I was just wondering if there is a difference in the speed of processing the applications depending on whether they are EEA or outside? It seems as if the EEA applications take longer.

Application Referees

Hi,

I have got two referees for my application form. One is a professional who is my sibling's friend and the other referee is my friend but not a professional. I wanted to know what they need to write on the form?

Is it ok if they write that they are my friends?

Thanks
