Waiting

According to the naturalisation application reference here, I really wondered that I have not still received my Ack. n Bio. letters from H.O. I have sent, emailed and faxed my request to HO on 22/6, 6/7 n 9/7 respectively. Unfortunately, no reply is received. As I have planned to leave UK with my family on 17.7.2015 and return Uk at the end of August. I certainly feel anxious and helpless at present. What can I do? ( After I have finished my NCS service, I got a receipt informing that "If u are planning to leave the UK at all in the two months following your application u need to be aware that u will be invited to enrol ur bio at some point in that period. ......n failure to do so in the requisite period could result in the rejection of ur application." ) I misunderstand that I do not need to enrol my Bio as I have enrolled it in 2014. I find this website after my submission for the naturalisation application

I have seen many people worrying about their application. The Home Office are unpredictable, my friend applied 2 months before me and i was one of his referee who countersigned for him. From the day he send his application through postal and to the day he received his approval took 3 weeks max.

He book his ceremony and after attending the ceremony he took two weeks to send off for his passport, went for interview few days later and 3 days after that he received his passport. So technically for him, the whole process took him 8 week max.

Although I feel that Home Office are mentally and emotionally torturing us. Just a piece of chilling advise for us all, remember we are closer to getting our approvals In Shaa Allah than we were yesterday. No amount of worrying will change the decision and timeline of our application. Lets all just keep praying and hoping to have that special postman knocking our doors sooner than later.

Peace everyone and i hope some of us gets our approval this week.
