Naturalisation : Applied on 14/10 at NCS recd ACKN on 10/11!

Hi Everyone,

I have been following this forum for a long time.
Looking at NCS service feedback, I also went through the same route but the experience I had was totally different.

I applied on 14/10/2005 at Northamption NCS on the basis of 4 years of WP + 1 yr ILR.
I didn't receive an acknowledgement from Home Office for 4 weeks. I contacted NCS, Homeoffice, Royal Mail and they all said it had reached home office on 17/10/2005.

I kept wondering why I haven't received any confirmation/acknowledgement from Home Office.

Today, I received a acknowledgement letter from Home office saying that they have recd all the documents and they would process it accordingly. But the acknowledgement letter is dated 10/11/2005 !!!!

So, will my application be considered as received before 1st Nov as it reached them on 17th Oct OR considered as received on 10th Nov when they acknowledged it.

I would like to know, if anyone had a similar problem ?

BTW, Northamption NCS had started operation a week before I applied !!!!
