I have a quick question for those who didn't use NCS and posted their application via Special Delivery.

Did you received your approval and documents all together? and did you receive them via your pre-paid Special Delivery envelop?

Many thanks in advance for your help.
I received the approval letter together with all my documents in a brown envelope. I forgot to include a special delivery so it came 2nd class mail.

You can contact the council if you want to speed things up. I contacted my local council the day after I received my approval letter and was booked for my naturalisation ceremony four days later. The council emailed me the ceremony details. I am not sure how often they run them, but would have been a shame if it was only once a month and I missed this one and had to wait until the end of October...

In any case, the worst part of the waiting is over since you are approved :)

I am London based. Applied on 10th June

A brown envelope arrived yesterday, was so excited and rushed to open it but it was from capital credit card asking me to take a credit card :( :( :(

Well it appears like my caseworker is still on holiday. Now decided to chill little bit and leave it. let them send whenever they like, at the end of the day at least have ILR :D

Not much bothered , as dont have any travelling plans (think so)...
We can only Wait and no other option , HO should consider introducing a tracking system , shame even the smallest retailers have this option.

Lol! This is way too funny...strangely I got the brown Capital One envelope a couple of days back!! I feel all of us waiting are connected with the same caseworker. Let's hope this brown envelope is a sign of an imminent HO brown envelope!

Applied on the 4th of June and still waiting.
HO should definitely implement some tracking system given the amount of money they charge for their service.
