NCS @ Manchester on 17Mar, fee not yet debited

Post by TargetTier1 » Sun Apr 10, 2016 10:14 pm

Hello

I submitted my wife's citizenship application(as spouse of BC) at Manchester NCS on 17 Mar 2016, application received at HO on 18th Mar. But I have not received any acknowledgement letter so far and also application fee is not yet taken from the credit card.

I am a bit worried about it. Is anyone in a similar situation or has any one experienced it in the past?

Please help, thanks in advance.

Many Thanks

I assume you mean March? It can take a while so it's best to sit tight and wait, I'm sure everything is fine.

That was a typo (corrected). Yes it's March. Thanks for the response

The payments seem to be taken in batches and it can take up to 6 weeks, also there was likely a huge influx of applications around the date you submitted yours (due to fee increase on 18th March), and remember we've had the Easter holidays in between too.

Suggest you be patient and wait another couple of weeks.

I thought so. Lot of people must have applied during this period. But I have seen some cases on March timeline wherein payments have been taken off.
