You mean to say payment not debited, no acknowledgement and no biometric notification.

Hi Guys,

I applied for my 3 Kids naturalisation on 02nd April. Any one got approval in this date?
Seems like HO taking too much time since they introduce the BM.
Any idea how long its gonna take more............

Thanks

Okay, thank you! Mine was "signed for" the same day, but they can't find it in their system. Ugh. This would be my luck!

Dent direct from USA, signed for on April 9th, still no receipt and no fees debited.

Yes that's when they signed for it.

No I haven't called, but I have been emailing. They don't have mine in the system yet, so they're checking the building. I didn't know whether it would be pointful to call or not, so I just stuck with email.

Who are you emailing as I am not getting any response to the general UKVI email. All of their responses tell me to check the status of my visa application, but MN1 is not a visa application.

I didn't plan on registering on this forum but your post got me slightly concerned.

I too posted an application for registration of British Citizenship (not MN1) from a Commonwealth country and it was received by the UKVI office in Liverpool on 9 April 2015.

No word since and no fees deducted as of yet.

Has anyone received the certificate after biometric? How long is generally the wait time after submission of biometric?

[seagull_partyof1]

This is the email address I got from the Visa and Immigration website:

FurtherNationalityEnquiries@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk

It can take up to 20 days for them to respond but they've been a bit quicker than that so far.

[bizzywizzy]

Thank you very much I have just emailed them asking why I haven't heard thing in the seven weeks since my applications were received.

All of my fingers are crossed for you! And myself. This is getting a little ridiculous, and isn't helped by the fact that my FedEx tracking information was weird.

Ugh I'm in the same boat. 5 weeks with no acknowledgement, nothing. The stupid auto response says they aim to acknowledge in 6 weeks and we can't contact them until it's been 8. What are they doing?

[imi99999]

Can any one answer please 
Filling mn1 for child
Mine ILR 10 years Long residency

3. Not filling Section 3 as guidance notes says
If the application is in respect of a child born abroad, to parents who are British citizens by descent under section 3 (2) or 3 (5) you should complete this section, otherwise go straight to Section 4: Good Character.

This section applies to the child applicant if they are aged 10 and over. (Mine is 4 and 6)

The guy at the NCS told us to wait around a month for the money to be taken, as there was a backlog for a month.

Hi,

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. Yes
5. One referee should be any one who know you and other one should be professional like as you said school teacher is ok
but one should be british passport holder.
Setion 8:
You have to send original passport with your BRP ( I sent my Indefinite Approval letter with photo copy of passport and BRP, I am still for the decision so i cant suggest you now util I my kids application approve)
You have to send both kids application in one Pack and Marriage Certificate must be in english.
For your child their previous passport, BRP and Original full Birth Certificate.
