No. You must wait to hear back

There are probably quite a few members here who are still waiting for decisions going back more than six months, or even a year+. The average is about five months these days, remember there has been a spike in applications from EEA citizens. It's uncomfortable, I do sympathise, but there isn't much the individual can do apart from wait.
Do u get ur response from home office because i m waiting for last one yearGlbawi wrote: ↑Sat Oct 07, 2017 10:30 pmThanks. My understanding is that if an application took more than 6 months that means there is something wrong. That's why I asked if someone has the same experience and turned out to be there was no problem afterward. I thought my case is straight forward but u never know with the home office.

Any idea why it might have been delayed so much? I applied in August and still waiting...Kurabor wrote: ↑Tue Apr 24, 2018 8:28 pmHi jegz83 . Thanks for your answer mate . Sorry to hear that. That's very frustrating. I applied on 27th of April 2017 I tried all of the ways but nothing I can do. Mp solicitors , complain, email and phone call non of them can work. We just have to wait and wait...... hopefully we get the answer soon . It's really psychological torture
There is nothing you need to post to HO. They will ask for originals if they need them.Kiz wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2019 10:58 pmGood evening
I m Waiting for more than one year and my all friends get British citizenship within 2 months time.
Do u get your approval back and what is the reason of delaying, i submitted my application through nationality checking service they give my original document back except life in the uk and i m thinking now i should give my documents by post.

I'v applied on the 6 of April 2017, as now passed the 6 months standard,I contacted the home office and got reply saying that my case is now with a caseworker. That's it no apologies no explanation whatsoever. My MP got involved and sent a letter on my behalf.
Has anyone passed the same experience? Or in the same boat still waiting? What could be the possible cause for delaying my application? Any help please would be much appreciated. It's just that I can't even sleep or do anything from the stress.
I applied on October 2015 and still waiting for the result.Today is 08/10/2017.I contacted with HO avery 6 months then followed my their complaint procedure then my MP was involved and finally this is about 3 months which my case is in Ombudsman and no result so far.During past 11 years I haven't done anything wrong even a driving penalty.I was sometimes working and sometimes on benefit but almost working and paid NI contribution as well.The only thing which I think made my application delayed is that I contacted with HO every 6 months.I suggested everyone with the same situation as me to don't contact with HO and leave your case with them until the result.Honestly by my experience there is nothing which we can do if our application process takes too long and thats it.
Similarly, I applied on Nov 2016, still pending a decision, I chased few times just kept getting the usual response saying to it takes time to assess good character requirements and I have to wait.
in the meantime, I applied for a SAR, and received the notes from my case!! I read it carefully and below are two notes, and my understanding is that no one has been assigned to consider my application!!
"note on 'Depart A' (I cannot say the name) does not state which 'Depart B' team is dealing with this applicants case" !! (this was following to me chasing them in June 17)
another note says
"as per note 14 December 2016 'Depart C' file forwarded to ------
Spoke to ---- ------- as note does not state which 'Depart B' team is dealing with the application
Advised to send email to an 'Depart B' team and request they forward the enquiry to the correct team if its not for them" !!
I have emailed NationalitySupportTeamFMT@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk & Citizenship.Support@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk, advising that I will be sending a Pre-action protocol for "failure to make decision within reasonable time frame "
I will give an update if I hear anything!
I applied in July 2018, its been more than 1 year 5 months, still pending decision, really frustrated.Hustler123 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 13, 2019 9:30 amHi guys
I applied on 05/12/2018 it’s going to be a year soon.recently I received letter from home office saying there’s exceptionally complex issues with my application therefore they need more time to make a decision. There’s nothing I could do apart from wait
any update yet?Hustler123 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 15, 2019 9:10 pmHi there
I’m sorry to hear that I know it’s really hard to be humble on this situation but there’s nothing we could do.did you email ukvi for an update?
