Hounslow council charges 200/ gbp for the private ceremony: I think it is probably one of highest in the UK.
Good Luck to the rest who are still waiting.

I was told by council that the invitation letter will have a poll reference number that we have to provide the council when contacting them to book the ceremony.
There is nothing much we can do at this stage apart from waiting for our invitation letter. The approval letter says it can take up to 2 weeks to receive the invitation letter. I will keep you posted on any progress from my side but please do keep me updated on any progress on your end.
Thanks.

You can send an email to NationalityProgress@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk. Include your ref number, full name, DOB and address. They usually respond in a day or two but they dont give any details apart from "no decision has been made yet".Jay0804 wrote:Any idea how to check the status either by online or over phone?
I have seen some members applied in April and May received this week only. However I want to check the status. Can any one help me?

The letter says, "This is not an invitation to ceremony and I should not contact my Local Authority until I received my invitation. if u havenot recieved ur invitation within 2weeks of the above date, u should email to the Nationality Enquries to request for a further copy".
My question
Do I've to wait or should I just need to send an email to HO about the invitation letter(because I received approval letter today: 13/09/13 but it is dated 29/07/13).
Can anybody help me and plz also share the email content what they have to send to HO
thanks
Congratulations! and good luck for your ceremony. the above you stated does that means that when you emailed them after 4th Sep, they wrote that no decision was made? or just said they cant provide any information?BB Queen wrote:Date of application: 31 July 2013

P.S. responses re my app status i had from NationalityProgress@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk and 08706067766 in the past week did not match. Although approval letter dated 4 Sep, neither of them could see in the system whether the decision has been made or the decision letter has been posted due to "case working system has changed thus, we can not give you any updates anymore" (c) ???!!!!!
Good luck to all!
