March 2015 Naturalization application timeline

[20March2015]

Congratulations to all who received their approvals this week...

Looks like HO finally done with the payment slips and moving to the application forms.

My fee was deducted on 8th April, however didn't receive any acknowledgement yet (either postal or email). Hope they save the postage charge on this and send the Approval next week.

Picked up couple of Passport application forms from the post office as I was walking past Hope HO don't disappoint me by delaying for 6 months.

Keep bringing the good news mates...

I received an email from UKVI to complete the customer satisfaction survey and give feedback about their service

I gave most importance to give a online tracking information to the applicants, which is currently not available.

I say to all those guys who got approvals to complete these survey so UKVI improve their level of service in future

Thats realy good .. thanks

Sorry to hear that, jaweb. Over six weeks and they haven't even started... It really seems to be just down to luck and which case worker's pile an application lands on.

Something sounds fishy about that - my understanding was that those in HO Customer service, dont get to see what is going on with the case until at least after 6 months have elapsed and reading on some of the other threads, not even post that. To me, it sounds like a made up story but who am I to judge! Did they promise to send back your original certificate? Regardless, I do hope that it comes around quick for you.

[JamesBrodie]

jaweb, how do you know that they 'have not touched' your husband's appliation? what exactly did they say?

Any approval for 3rd March applicants ?

[rakeysh.patel]

I've been little innovative - HO isnt going to give you the information and as we have seen some of the posts are taking ages to arrive - I called ECC to check if they have received anything for us so we can book a ceremony My excitement was short-lived when they gave me big fat No lol
