I've got a question please if anyone could clarify. I came to UK in Aug 2004 applied for my ILR on 28 Aug 2014 and got approval on 28 March 2015. When can I apply for Naturalisation someone was telling me that I can apply in this August as i have completed 11 years. As far as I know I think I have to be on ILR for a year before I can apply. Can please any clarify this.
Thanks
Ali
Thanks very much Kiwimel123. You'll receive yours in few days I guess. It seems like HO started working properly and working on March applicationsKiwimel123 wrote:Congratulations Tulip and Ironmaiden! I have been watching and waiting and wishing you both to get your approvals and am delighted to see you have recieved them.
All the best for your ceremonies - I hope you are planning a celebration meal to follow? Cucumber Sandwiches and Tea??
I am still checking the post on a daily basis ......

But what I heard from most people , may be its wrong but mostly they dont contact referees in naturalisation applications but they must contact passport application referee.bura wrote:hi guys it would be great if somebody could share their experience
does anyone know what kind of questions did caseworker asked when they contacted your referees ? thanks
It is also clear that you'll have to wait for 1 year before you apply for citizenship after you get ILR, which will be on or after 28 March 2016. If you are spouse of BC then you can apply straightaway after you get your ILR.tomboy wrote:Allesheikh wrote:Hi Everyone

Its now 4 months and still waiting. Not received any approval so far. Have you received yours? Have people who applied on 31st March started getting their approvals?hsshagor wrote:I have applied 25th March fee debited 16 April - not received approvalblooms wrote:Nobody in the April thread has gotten an approval.

I received acknowledgment letter somewhere around mid of April 2015.
However, I have not received any approvals so far (its been two months now since application) and my case is very clear without any issues (5 years + 1 year ILR).
Has anybody received approvals for applications submitted on 31st March 2015 or later? Just wanted to check if my case is held up in particular or generally 31st March and beyond approvals are not coming yet.
Thanks.
You're next.

Hello mate, do not worry there are a few people here who have applied earlier in March too and are in the same boat as you...I applied on the 27th March and like you, I'm still waiting for approval.
March must have been a very busy month @ HO, with people rushing to beat the deadline for changes in T&Cs and increase in fees I guess.
Keep your head high!

It'd been just over a week and I am still waiting, I have applied on the 6th of March.
Was it a week from the date the letter was issued or the day you've received u approval? Thx jaweb
It was the letter dated. Got it 5 days later. So all together like 12-13 days. Dont worry!
