shall I just carry on waiting? what is the time scale please on waiting? there should be way to get some updates?alterhase58 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 20, 2022 8:39 pmThis is a standard email reported by many members. It's basically saying they may not meet their 6 months target for completion. The bit about "complex case" baffles many applicants but it seems meaningless. Even if you call you won't be talking to caseworkers.
no sir even I don't want to involve anyone just worried hope the application is under process as I didn't get nay reply. I will carry on wait than. Do you think it will another 2-3 months or can be less or more?alterhase58 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 20, 2022 10:15 pmUnfortunately there's no easy way to get any updates or any idea of time scale. We have no insight into UKVI processes. You could try and involve your MP (not a guarantee they can speed up anything), or just keep on waiting.
hello there so i have got another update about my application which is very complicated. i submit my application on 26.08.2021 and i was out of country for 124 days with in 5 years ( when i can be for 450 days) so they are saying don’t met this requirement?MANANSH wrote: ↑Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:16 pmno sir even I don't want to involve anyone just worried hope the application is under process as I didn't get nay reply.

thanks
So we're you out of the UK during these dates?According to your application form you left the United Kingdom on 09 July 2016 and returned on 27 September 2016.
As you were not in the United Kingdom on 27 August 2016 this requirement is not met.

Many people have received the same email asking to reply to resubmit the application. You can browse using the same text and find answers on this website.
It basically means you have to be in uk 5 years ago from the date of application in order to comply with requirements. It is some rule that they calculate on that basis.
Since you were not in uk - they are asking to reply to resubmit the application. I think you will receive your approval soon . Best wishes.
Shall i email them that resubmit my application? or i have to fill new application,pc1463 wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 7:41 amHi there,

What exactly should I do now. I can’t afford to lose money please. Shall I email them that resubmit the application. It won’t effect anything? Please advice it is confusing actually I am sorry.CR001 wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 10:11 amYes,the absence is fine. But it is separate to the mandatory requirement to be physically present in the uk at the start of your qualifying period, so you should not have any absence exactly 5 years before you apply for citizenship.
Do not confuse the two separate requirements.
When I submit my application I had absences of 124 days. From 2016-2021 and still I don’t understand what is going on where I am doing mistake. And if I am replying back that please resubmit my application will they count from today’s date back for 5 years? Please explain I am really sorry I am taking time but I don’t wanna do anything wrong.

Yes. But you MUST make sure that you were actually IN the UK on the date you resign in may 2017, ie not out of the UK for any reason.And if I am replying back that please resubmit my application will they count from today’s date back for 5 years?

When you submitted your application in August last year, the mandatory requirement was that you must have been physically IN the UK exactly 5 years ago in August 2016, IE not abroad on holiday. You apparently were not in the UK as you were abroad between June 2106 and September 2016 and this is the mistake you made when you applied by not checking you met the requirement to be in the UK exactly 5 years earlier.
The mandatory present 5 years ago requirement has no discretion to be waived. This has nothing to do with any absence limits which is a separate and different requirement.

I was on maternity leave that why I went for holidays. And I thought that’s fine as I am not away for 450 days I will be fine. But I never left uk for good or anything I went to see my parents with there grandchild. That’s all. So if I resubmit will they count from 2017 till now? But still I was away for 37 days. When I submit I read everything and did accordingly this is so confusing for some people.CR001 wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 11:13 amWhen I submit my application I had absences of 124 days.

It is not your period or absence limit that is the matter here. It is the requirement to be present in UK 5yrs ago counting from date Of application.MANANSH wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 11:28 amCR001 wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 11:13 amWhen I submit my application I had absences of 124 days.

Thank you so much. I am really sorry I took your time. But didn’t want to do anything wrong. It was so confusing and took me while to understand it’s not the gap it’s the date I was not in country so that was the problem so I will ask them to resubmit the application. Will I have to wait again 6+ month as it will be resubmission or they will do it quickly.AmazonianX wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 12:44 pmCorrect and requires no further action or fee paymentMANANSH wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 12:34 pmYes I understood this now I had to read.
