Hi,I have a similar email from CT2 casework worker asking for a proved of a document which i send same day 16/09/2021,do anyone has this before and how long does it take to get a decision please?Humble123 wrote: ↑Wed May 13, 2020 10:26 pmProbably it’s the caseworker dealing with your application, I got an email from ct2 on Friday 1st May requesting for more details from me, I sent the requested documents. I sent email yesterday requesting for my application update and got a response today saying that a decision has been made.
At least your application is being dealt with.
I believe if you check early morning, say between 6 and 9am, there may be new appointment slots available, including free ones. Also possibly after midnight. This is just from comments I have read here and elsewhere.migrant_uk16 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 19, 2021 7:02 pmAt what point does the UKVCAS release the appointment?
I checked at 1pm today (Sunday) and then again just now (7pm Sunday) and found that at local Enhanced service point - there is nothing available till 19th October.
Is this normal and will more appointments be released?
I received the following reply from UKVCAS when I asked the same question:migrant_uk16 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 19, 2021 7:02 pmAt what point does the UKVCAS release the appointment?

Similar timescale and wait here, applied in January and it has been 8 months now, and with same responses when I requested an update every time. I’m so fed up already…themisc wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 12:51 pmIt's been 8+ months since the application.
Got some sort of a response now confirming that the application is with them and nothing else concrete.
The message is all about it's covid, they make enquiries with other external agencies which might delay progress etc.
So does this mean theoretically the waiting time could be indefinite?
I just checked the timeline and found out that few people who submitted their applications in August have already got approval, however some applicants who applied in February and March are still waiting for the decision. The UKVI's case processing system seems to be very random. Some applications were sent to the decision-making team straight away but the other applications might spend more than 6 months in their processing queue. Their way to deal with cases has zero transparency and the entire thing is very frustrating.Hkg1222 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 6:30 pmSimilar timescale and wait here, applied in January and it has been 8 months now, and with same responses when I requested an update every time.

That is the problem; after so long you start to think maybe you missed the communication requesting more information. Was it an email that you missed? Was it a letter that was never delivered?Markus2904 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 10:39 am
I stay positive and would like to think that if something was wrong, they would have let me know already...?!
Good point, but the timeline provided by the gov says up too 6 months. Hence, i can't really complain yet... Its a bit of a catch22 situation, isn't it?!ladida wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 11:01 amThat is the problem; after so long you start to think maybe you missed the communication requesting more information.

It is but for the money we pay we should have the right to ask or get updates on application. This process is really not good for mental health.Markus2904 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 11:04 amGood point, but the timeline provided by the gov says up too 6 months.

True - for the money you can argue there should be a tracking process somewhere...ladida wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 11:17 amIt is but for the money we pay we should have the right to ask or get updates on application.

Might depend on location. My appointment was 10 days after I submitted my application online.sasmskr wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 2:44 pmI plan to send the application by the end of October. I am planning a trip to the US from 11th December till 16th January 2022. Do you think that I'll be able to book a biometric appointment before 11th December or should I wait to apply after I come back from the trip?

Looks like a genuine email address being quoted. I would though suggest you get in touch with your council in case they have already received the certificate.Moesecka1985 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 8:30 pmHi everyone I have a email today from a CT2 case worker....this was his exact email.I am still wondering if this a genuine email.Has anyone received there approval in this kind of email ?Sous49 wrote: ↑Sun May 17, 2020 6:28 pmThis gives some hope that what received about a decision made is real .

I am pleased to say that the application has been successful and you will shortly receive a letter inviting you to attend a citizenship ceremony. When you attend a ceremony you will be presented with a certificate of British citizenship.
Please note, this letter is not an invitation to a ceremony. You should not contact your Local Authority until you have received your invitation. If you have not received your invitation within the next 3 weeks, you should email us at Citizenship.Support@homeoffice.gov.uk.
Yours sincerely,
Bloody hell 4 years! What's wrong with them!?mrafgsharoon wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 5:35 amHello Dear All Friends
