Re: Applying for settled status - No pre-settled UAN number

I'm going to answer my own question, since I already resolved it. Rang the EU settlement scheme centre and eventually got through. Basically, the shorter application ID was for paper applications.

Applying for settled status - No pre-settled UAN number

Hello, My wife has pre-settled status. As of January, she has 5 years residence and is eligible for settled status. My wife initially entered the UK under the Surinder-Singh route and is a non-EU citizen. We have gone through the entire process with no issue, but there is one sticking point. The onl...

Confused, citizenship through grandparent or parent

Hello, My mother was born on the island of Ireland in the 1950s. I was born in the UK in 1988 and in November 2021, I received my first Irish passport based on her birthplace.

Re: Ireland - First time passport applications timelines -2021

Use the online chat and ask them directly. You might just ask them to contact the witness again and see if they can do that. It's safer than someone giving you a wrong answer here. Yep, just did actually. Should have done that initially. They've said i'm free to submit the same person again, but th...

Re: Ireland - First time passport applications timelines -2021

Sorry, further to my post above, the email says: "Once your reply is received and the issue is resolved, we will aim to process your application within the standard turnaround time.", does that mean I am again going to have to wait another 2 months?

However, they just happened to be on holiday this week in an area with no reception when they tried to call. Obviously they couldn't ge...

Re: First time passport application

I sent everything as an original, except for a certified copy of my driver's license.

The certification was done by a solicitors office for £20.

waiting since mid June......
I'm waiting still since early June. Applied late May and docs received early June.

No confirmation the docs are scanned yet.

I'm in no rush, but I do think that more realistic estimate dates would probably put peoples' minds at rest and cause less questions!

A little bit surprised looking at your timelines... let us wait for another 1-2 days .... i think your status should change to printing.
Spoke to chat today and they said documents haven't been scanned yet. It's in the queue, that's all they could say.
