Elections won't make any difference to the application timeline as the staff from the passport office or from UKVI has not got anything to do with voting count.

I'm calling to see if I can make my appointment yet later on today.Dal wrote:Hi to all,
I am from EU/ Portuguese.Got my CPR or ILR since
December 2014.
On 09/03/2015 I applied for my son 4 years old, UK born.
I used Haringey NCS. The officer told me that for children
normally it takes 2 weeks to get the approval.
I am still waiting and I don't want to apply for my
10 months baby boy before getting the first one decision.
Last week Tuesday I called to HO as some people applied
after me and got their approval already. They said is
not possible to check my son application on the system
we have to wait up to 6 months .
Good luck to all who are still waiting!

I haven't been able to book my ceremony yet as when I called they said I need to wait until I receive my invitation letter from them before I can book a private ceremony or even to tell me if they have received my detailssuregena wrote:I've got through on the phone now, and they can't confirm if they've received my info or not and said I had to go book the appointment in person.
