I think most people from May June July etc..2014 have received their approvals . The thread on this forum are now too slow. Remember those of us waiting come to this forum to seek peace of mind and reassurance. So it would be of great help if you share your experience. Been waiting 10 months now. Can't even think of calling to chase anything up as I received the 3 to 6 month letter wait and a further letter asking for my original documents. Good luck to everyone

Hi

I applied as spouse of Brit Citizen after completion of 3 years in UK, Now looking at the posts here I am confused if I will be asked to submit Biometrics again as part of my current Naturalisation application applied on April 14, 2015 although I got a Biometric residence card last year in September 2014 as approval of my ILR. I have submitted my BRP with my current application

Please let me know
Thanks
Bini

any application received by home office before or on 2nd April 2015 falls in the old regulations which doesn't require biometrics enrolment. so relax :)

I think people dont read the Topic properly and keep pasting long shiiits here, if someone wants to see timeline he has to scroll these all big A**** down.

This is completely uncalled for. Mind your language. Points can be put across politely as well. If scrolling is taking too much of your energy then I wonder how do you manage other stuff in day to day life.

There is no point to argue with each other, FCPK is right.
If any one wants to do piss he should go to toilet not in the sitting room, isnt it right jabsbini????
So kindly stop jumping into others matter with nonsense reasons and mind your own business here. check the time lines and go away.
