looks like good news -ironmaiden wrote:I believe this is the link for the latest stats: https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... itizenship
The HO statistics, if I have understood correctly, show that out of 39441 BC applications, 36658 are granted and 2425 refused. This would mean 358 [39441- 39083 (36658 Granted + 2425 Refused)] applications (covering the FQ of 2015, Jan-March) currently awaiting consideration. Is it probabable that HO will drag on with these 358 applications for ages?nfornv wrote:looks like good news -ironmaiden wrote:I believe this is the link for the latest stats: https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... itizenship

Yes, We have to till we get the break down of every months statistics , because from their previous statistics by 31 dec 2014, they had around 10,000 pending?? if we add that to the equation, then the figures would be around 50,000 (in total) still 14,000 pending???egoneo wrote:Home office might be being sly here.

You guys are absolutely spot on! It is the number of applications that HO received during the FQ of 2015, but approvals and refusals could be from ancient times!!

You can use expired IELTS for neutralisation even if you haven't used it before for visa application. But for ILR you can't unless you have used it for previous visa application .jabsbini wrote:Wow I didn't know that HO accepts expired IELTS, I gave a new IELTS exam to apply for my ILR in April 2014 (I had an expired IETLS but thought its not valid anymore so gave another exam) , submitted the same valid IELTS for Naturalisation in April 2015Kinye wrote:Kinye wrote:Hi, I have been Silence following this page since I submitted my application last month,
