Check the status of your application online - New service

[aura85]

Same boat, 20th april like you.. still awaiting decision 25/05.. Wondering if they need to carry out checks with the other goverments and maybe some countries are slower than others.. pumpkin I see you're EEA too, where are you from? I'm Italian

My application is now showing "decided" since yesterday afternoon, updated on 8 September 2017. I received a response from the HO on Thursday afternoon they were looking into it, so I would recommend chasing it up as it seems to me (based on mine and also other people's experience) that all the checks are done and it is just a matter of someone looking at them and deciding the case and sending an email means they will probably dig out the file and ask someone to deal with it so that you stop bothering them. Worth a try!

So in summary, applied 20 April 2017, decided on 8 September 2017 although the status only changed online on 11 September 2017. Hope this helps someone and fingers crossed I get everything sorted before the move!

I sent two one to nationalityenquiries and one to citizenship.support following the template that was posted here somewhere.. but nothing

Hi,

I am sure you will get your reply soonish. I've sent a follow up on Sunday evening thanking for the swift reply and asking if I will get a hard copy confirmation of the decision (in addition to ceremony invite). I was told that I will receive ceremony invitation, no word about a confirmation of the decision - "I can confirm you will receive a hard copy invitation to book your citizenship ceremony in the post shortly.".

They just replied! They said they'll forward my email to the relevant team to look into the matter.. I wonder if I should get worried by the 'look into the matter' Probably it's just a standard way to say they're gonna check it
Phew.. thanks everyone for the support.. i'll keep you posted

Decided! It appeared an hour ago decision made 13/09 (they responded to my email on the 12th saying somebody was gonna look into it) woohoo!

Question: if it got rejected, would it say 'rejected' or still decided and I'll find out in the post?
I can't think of any reason why it could have been rejected but you never know.. i'm a worrier

Another April applicant here, still waiting... Sent an email to HO a few days ago, no response yet. I thought this would be done by end of July, then end of August, now seriously hoping for at least end of September as I am moving at the end of the month...

Does this service work for the applicants from outside the UK? because I have tried putting my IHS and GWF number and it says not recognised... anyone, please guide me

Which I'd email reply you? Citizenship support or rationality enquiries?

I sent one to nationality enquiries, and a week later one to citizenship support.
The following week I got a response from citizenship support saying the email was gonna be forwarded to the relevant team, then 5-6 hours later I got an email from someone (a personal address) saying 'thanks for your email, your case has been assigned to a caseworker today'
The following day, I have received a response from the nationality enquiries address saying they wanted to assure me about the status, the application was not lost and they will inform me as soon as a decision is made, however they aim to do it within 6 months.
So I guess, both responded, but it seems that the citizenship advice people triggered the other response (from nationality enquiries) too..

Hi, does anyone know how soon the home office notifies the council after an application decision has been made. I am thinking of contacting my council as I'm currently on holiday and won't be able to find out the decision from the home office till I get back.
