congratulation mate , is your application was straightforward ? that really was a long wait

Any idea why this is taking so long?? I applied together with the rest of the family and they got theirs immediately. Still waiting for mine. Is there a possibility that they have lost the application?

So many application still pending don't know when they will finish.

My son's brown big envelope finally came on Saturday 29.08.15. No celebrations at all, the interest and expectation had long worn off. That's it for the whole of my family. Good luck to all May applicants still waiting.

Hi LCJ. I am sorry to hear you were unafirly refused your naturalisation application. Although the rule might have been in place under 9.7 of the Chapter 8- Annex D, surely the fact that HO had previously made this allegation without proof which you denied should mean they cannot then use it against you again unless they now have new evidence.

What's the progress on your case?
Did you get to find out how HO got the suspicious again that you worked over 20 hours as a student? Did they find new evidence?
Did you get a solicitor?
Were you able to overturn the decision?
What is the position of your case now?

Also, they said you could not apply until after 10 years, but that should be 10 years from the last time an applicant was found to be non-compliant with the immigration requirements so again this would have been an error and a show of ignorance on the part of the caseworker.

Let us know the developments. Thanks
