Hi
Applied 08-11-2012
payment taken 13-11-2012
acknowledgement letter around 12-11-2012
biometric letter 10-01-2013
biometrics done 14-01-2013

Still waiting for the docs and BRP. UKBA response still processing last week of Oct applications. It's like different responses for different ppl. but end of day message will be "We will contact you once your application processed/completes."

Please let me know if anyone tried something else with UKBA to get response or expedite the process after 6 months. Can we send some kind of request letter to expedite process ?

Hi i am not an expert and i cant see what we can do to speed UKBA they like to keep as in cages, seen other posts where people sent letters/complaints etc and never got any response from them unless there is serious illness or death in close family.

i am in the stage where i cant sleep well waiting for a post man in morning to knock on the door, booked holiday 4 months ago for july and that could go to waste.

hope that we all will hear something soon.

Hi bl2013,

I applied on 7/02/03 and got biometrics done on 20/02/2013 and haven't heard anything since. I'm halfway through the 6 month waiting list and getting worried. I also applied after completing 6 years discretionary leave basis of mum being naturalised british citizen. I hope we bith hear something soon all we can do is wait and be patient.

Hi sco_kop
our case is probably same i completed 2*3 years of DL ,my mum is british citizen for some years now.

You got your biometrics pretty quick and maybe they are deciding faster now due to UKBA bad performance in past.

i am a bit stuck with my life now the waiting is killing me, booked holiday 4 months ago for july and that could go to waste but there is no much we can do that wait and hope for the best.
