Hi Ariskar, You are right it's frustrating and only thing to do is being patient as you said. I've contacted the council several times using this email RegisterOffice@lbhf.gov.uk and they reply promptly. Goodluck to all of us waiting. Thanks mate, really appreciate this. Frustrating is an understat...
I do mate. Tired of wasting my valuable time speaking to people on the phone and then they sound like they are really helping you when they are following a script. :lol: I wont waste my breath only to get angry after the call. Wait I shall. I can understand you, we are on the same boat. But imagine...
I've been waiting for my invite since the middle of may and keeping spirits high till I walked back in from the gym 10 mins ago with a brown envelope with my council name on it. You needed to see how elated i felt with joy in my heart singing 'finally'. And then, I carefully opened it to make sure ...
Has anyone received an invitation letter for Hammersmith and Fulham Council?

Dear Ariskar, congratulations. I am very happy for you that you finally got the good news. Did you email Home Office or they sent you the news by themselves without you asking for an update? Warmest, My spouse timeline. Approval, July 2019 application. 10.5 months processing time. Some positive new...

... b) Citizenship is much harder to undo/nullify than ILR. And some refugees have been creative with their recollections, their past being more imagination and fiction than fact and history. The Home Office has learnt from cases like the one highlighted in this post to subject a citizenship applic...
... We do not, ourselves, carry out these checks and we cannot, therefore, be sure how long they will take in each case. I think this is a very significant sentence in the letter above. It suggests that at least a part of the naturalisation process is out-sourced. That would also suggest that there...
It certainly does not help that some applicants have been economical with the truth , treating it as an optional extra, during their immigration process. If citizenship is irreversible or very hard to reverse, then it may be necessary to revisit the entirety of the applicant's immigration history b...
This email response illustrates and partially confirms that there is some systemic procedural segregation towards the majority of refugee route applicants; due to the fact that the reasons for additional checks criteria are disproportionately relevant to most of this route applicants immigration & r...
A similar, but sort of different answer my spouse received today (almost 10 months since application): Good Morning, Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to complete every case within our service standard, particularly if an applicant has a complex immigration history o...
I have an interesting update to share to be honest. We emailed them (a lot). They said: 1. ...waiting caseworker... (2 months) 2. ...assigned to caseworker waiting answer... (around 3 months) 3. ...email from HO: additional checks external agencies etc. - 6 months not possible... (after 5 months 4. ...
Thank you for the topic PTPP. I am an BC-EEA dual citizen myself. My spouse has ILR-refugee and ILR-EU Settled. Applied July 2019, pending for over >9 months, as many other applicants in the previous topic. What is interesting is that in our case, BC spouse & EU Settled status (after refugee route I...
I already have some ideas what to put and write and who to send. If anyone supports it, I will create a separate topic and will move this discussion there, where we can liaise further aspects. I support. Albeit we haven't made the HO written complaint either. Dear Ariskar, I have applied the same w...

My spouse concurrently holds two ILR BRP's: 1. Settlement - Refugee 2. Settlement - EU Setted status (family member of EEA citizen) When obtaining (ILR) EU setted status, there was no mention of return of previous ILR BRP or cessation of prior ILR status. Hence both ILR statuses are concurrently val...
A person with ILR already has settled status , granted under UK immigration rules. Applying again for settled status under EU settlement scheme is pointless and redundant for such a person. The EU settlement scheme guidelines are very clearly on this. EU settlement scheme should only be used for EE...
