You expect a government to be sympathetic to all applicants and forego enquiries and scurtiny? Do they do that in Pakistan? (your flag). Do you think that the British govt. should be lax in their procedures? UK at least responds with generic responses, most countries do not even spend time and resources acknowledging your questions. Unfortunately some names come up for additional investigation and get delayed. Be patient. As long as you are aware that your application is in the system you only need patience.Adeel1979 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2019 10:45 amNext week I will be celebrating my 1st anniversary of the Naturalisation application. Below is an email I wrote to Home Office last week.
Dear All,
I applied for British Citizenship on the 6th of August 2018. Well, it has been one year now and all I know is that 'Enquiries on my application are still ongoing'. I also know that there is no time limit specified in the nationality law to decide on the applications. I understand that in certain circumstances the target standard of 6 months is not possible to achieve--does this mean that the remaining applicants have to wait indefinitely with no real update from the HO?
Does the HO staff realise how such delays affect the personal and professional lives of people? Does the HO also understand the agony of keep waiting for the postman everyday in the hope of getting a brown envelope? Does the HO understands that the Nationality Helpline service is a waste of taxpayer money as they provide the same 2-line email to all inquirers rather than actually escalating the case?
No matter who you try to reach for help in the HO hierarchy, you will always get the same standard reply which frustrates you more rather than help. I have now got a bundle of such replies including from the Minister of immigration. Please see attached replies and you will find that they all are similar. They basically tell you that HO cannot tell you anything other than 'Enquiries on your application are still ongoing'. What is the harm in telling long delayed applicants that out of x enquiries, y have been completed. This in my view is more constructive source of communication.
How can I believe that 12 months is not enough for HO to conduct any sort of enquiry on my application from anywhere in the world. I just cannot get my head around it..
Home office cannot give a propers answer because they don’t know what there doing exactly.Adeel1979 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2019 10:45 amNext week I will be celebrating my 1st anniversary of the Naturalisation application. Below is an email I wrote to Home Office last week.

Do you work for the Home Office? How do you know about that ''Unfortunately some names come up for additional investigation and get delayed''?joeano353 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2019 10:59 amYou expect a government to be sympathetic to all applicants and forego enquiries and scurtiny?

I know some immigrants have limited vocabulary and I understand that. But avoid using words like bashing and stupidity and over smart--words which are misrepresentation of myself and my post. I think it is you who is misbehaving and please keep your anger to yourself.joeano353 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2019 5:23 pmwould you learn to behave?? you are using a forum that is meant for exchange of information and the moderators use their experience and expertise to assist. We come here not to listen to some over smart people like you who think this forum is for bashing HO. I wont have it. In fact I'm surprised the moderators do not shut down posts from people like you. I don't work for HO but I don't like stupidity written here. I come for my own reasons and you spoil the whole experience.
