This made me chortle.

It reminded me of an old joke from Yes Minister, on the lines that "The file is under consideration" means that they have lost the file, while "the file is under active consideration" means that they have lost the file, but are trying to find it.
Just wanted to clarify, are all the posts on these forums under this username for the same person? Because there seem to have been many refusals across a range of visas over a period of years. It is not impossible that some of the refusals of past applications may have raised red flags during the current application.
Your comment make me worried, can you please elaborate what could be the meaning of when my case is forwarded to nationality restrictions team ?secret.simon wrote: ↑Mon Sep 11, 2023 9:41 pmThis made me chortle.

I personally am not aware of a similar case on these forums, but I would not be surprised if there have been similar cases in the past.

My knowledge of Home Office procedure is based on reading publicly accessible guidance from the Gov.UK website. None of them seem to list the specific team that you have named and I have no idea of its remit.
A part of the Home Office's approach to naturalisation that is known is that there is no timeframe for the grant of naturalisation, given that the applicant already has ILR within the UK (ILR is a requirement for all naturalisation applications, after all) and has most of the rights of a British citizen within the UK (including voting in and even running for elections if a Commonwealth citizen with ILR). So, from the viewpoint of the Home Office, they can take their time scrutinising the application.
What form of scrutiny is conducted on a naturalisation application is a known unknown. We do not know the answer to that question, as none of us work for the Home Office and that information is not publicly available.
Worrying is not going to speed things up. All you can do is wait.
