I has been 2 months now since I sent a request to the Nationality department to correct a spelling error on my certificate of Registration.

I got nothing...not even ack letter. All I know is they took the £94.00 fee back on 6th Feb.

Hi Guys. I finally received the invitation to the ceremony today. Hopefully my Approval letter is on it's way too, because I would need it for my ceremony. Good luck for those who is still waiting. I am sure the postman will bring you a good news in a next couple of days. I will update you, when I receive an approval letter. Thank you for all your support and constant update. This forum is the best.
