Any New approvals.

Still waiting, no news after the acknowledgment letter at all. Applied around the same time as you.

I haven't bothered updating Timeline for this approval because the guy just created a whole thread for one post.

But it shows they have started process after Christmas/New Year's holidays. Good luck to all waiting.

That one is from before the holidays, though! Still nothing here.

Likewise.
No letter yet, can't believe it's been almost 3 months since i applied on 10/10/14. I thought it would be quick as most of October applicants were getting approval so soon.
We all can hope for the best.

Anyone any update after holidays.
Don't know if they have started processing after holidays or not.
I am still waiting

Is there anyone who emailed HO for an update on their application if yes than please quote the official language to ask for an update. And do HO bother to tel u an actuall update or stage of the application or it will be just a standard reply "under consideration".

Now I'm starting to think it's going to be refused! How long does it generally take before refusals are sent?!

Has anyone received an approval dated this year?

It seems lots of October applicants havent heard anything. I applied on 17th of October on a 5year + ILR with my wife, same status. Our daughter born here was naturalized last year. I thought this and my stable (permanent) job status would help to speed the process up. But no luck so far. I have called the HO few times and have heard "the under consideration" reply each time. I dont get it why some in our situation would get in a month while we havent heard back in three months?!

would be great if other October applicants post their status to see how many are on the waiting list

fingers crossed and all the best to everyone

What nationality are you? Seems like the Asians and those from Middle East are under the radar

Can you please explain how you reached that conclusion?? ..... looking at the spreadsheet there are quite a few Asians who have already got their approvals.

Again the regularly update spreadhseet posted above is showing that most October applicants have already received their approvals.

What am I missing????

I find it extremely disturbing that some applications do not even take a month or two to process, while others are kept waiting! If the application was free I could understand people having slightly more patience, however I feel that the Home Office are messing with our emotions here. I am extremely upset and worried that they will not meet their 6 month deadline after going through other months. I have a holiday booked for the end of April and i am panicking!

I feel your pain. I waited for ILR for 2 years and have just resolved myself to the fact that it's just my luck that I'll always be kept waiting. I've called them twice and both times they've told me my application is still 'under consideration' and I shouldn't call them until after 6 months. It's just very disheartening since I haven't seen any approvals for October from 2015 either.

It honestly does not depend on one person/factor alone. My friend received ILR after 6 months but citizenship in one-and-half weeks (record so far among people I know). Good luck

hello guys

I have quiet tried to kp myself and avoided login incase all of u had received your approvals am still waiting I call them every week am sure by now they are bored with me but I am so worried and anxious ...

waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait

maybe we should now just say April time as tht will be our 6months
