Hi

Is anyone this forum facing same issue. I believe my application approved by home office and I have received ceremony letter from council on 18/01/2014 but I still not received approval letter from Home office. I have to take approval letter with me for ceremony otherwise I can't attend. when I contact my council they told me to contact Home office and when I trying to contact by phone HO they don't answer and asking to send email. I sent email no reply yet. Please advise me what I have to do next and which number I can contact HO.

Thanks

I thinks NCS PPL messed up with my application sent.... Now i am tensed if the application send was mine not some one else!!
How can i check if they received my application..?

Guysss i need help.... pllllllllllllllllllllllllllsssssssssss

NCS only check to see all application os filled and the relevat questions answered and all the documents are with the application they then copy the original and stamp them to say they have been certified as originals and the correct fee paid to them and the Home Office it syour responability to make sure that eachquestions answer you understand and answer it correctley, NCS can not say your farther name is Fred or Barney thats yourr answer what you have to put down. it only take 10 mnutes to check the questions and the answers, and all this head ace will not happen. good luck

I passed my life in Uk.. DURING my indef leave... and had UK degree.. so that all required for my application

if you are applying for you naturalistion certificate then best to send the same certificate that you sent to apply for you ILR, i did my wifes and all she had was the ESOL Entry level 1 which she used for both the ILR and the naturalition (£874 + £50 wolverhampton Natulization Checking Service) then applyed for her british passport which they interviewed her in birmingham as it was her 1st british passport. best to book apointment with NCS inadvance and paythe payment by phone this will secure you checking date and all the documet you should take with you. its best to pay the extra for checking beacuse its not small amount fee you are paying and it takes the stress away.

Hi Guys, I recently posted that my ceremony was said to be on March 26th 2014, However, when I sent of my slip for people who I wanted to be invited I never received the confirmation back. So I phoned my local council this morning to confirm where my invitation slip for my guests is and when the woman pulled up my name on the system she thought it was strange as my ceremony is tomorrow the 29/01/14 and not march the 26 and that somewhere they made an error which they sincerely apologized for. Thank God I phoned as I wouldn't have known because really and truly I thought march 26th was so far away after being approved BC on the 8/01/14 by HO.

Have a good day guys and I continue to wish everyone good luck on here with their BC
