What can I take from this email? Is my case with a caseworker now? Has is just been assigned to a caseworker?
Any other information would be appreciated
Thank you
Have you sent an email to them?? And reply to you
No they are writing because it has been 6 months since I submitted my application

I don't know.. I filled it my self without help from a solicitor. I got refugee status through court after being refused by HO and I was unemployed for couple of years for health reasons I didn't explain in the application and I struggled financially so my credit report has couple of defaults
Saying that I never broke immigration laws or any other laws and have 5 years refugee plus 1 year ilr
Is that straight forward?

From my observation I noticed that they lately stopped giving any adequate feedback and it is the same sentences they are using regardless of the email you use.
While a month or more ago some had given some proper updates
Looks like there is some instruction to only use general replies

No any addresses. Just simple hello and saying we are delaying because we don’t care about your application 😂
I am so fed up with this home office. The most irresponsible government structure.

When did the HO receive your application? And was this email a response for an email you sent them?

This might help people waiting for Naturalisation. I received my approved letter yesterday at my house address even tho I put my office address for postal delivery. I wasn't even checking mail at home.
So if you have moved house during waiting time, consider informing Home Office about new house address.

Good luck everyone!

Hi guys

I feel as if I am the only one who received once an update that I should be contacted by post within 21 days but received nothing. When I questioned the contradicting updates I got ( after the above update i was told it is with a case worker and we will forward your email) when i questioned that contradiction i stopped getting anything rather than my application is under feedback checks or processing.
I am so worried that I may have made them angry at me or even that the application is lost or something

What do you think guys ..I am really so stressed

Thank you all and good luck
Hi Sousa49 , I'm so saddened that homeoffice has still not approved your application up till now, so strange. My advice to you is that, keep emailing them every 3 days, I know it's annoying but be polite to them..do not relent, keep emailing them every 3 days, this will heap alot of pressure on them to act quickly....my application was there for just 3 months but I sent over 5 emails to them...like I said, keep emailing them steady, just say you want to know the progress of your application...keep doing dat until it gets to a more serious person that will chase your case in that office...I wish you Good luck. Meanwhile, congratulations to me, my passport is here...
Congratulations for your passport.my daughter had hers as well
To be honest I am blaming my self that the repeated emails caused the delay. The daughter hasn't sent any and she got it before .
Will see
Thank you and again many congratulation

Sousa49 Any update on your application?
