Yeah im not too worried, totally expecting it to take months (its only been 3 weeks).
One of my friends got his the other day after 2 weeks (South African) and my other friend (New Zealander) has been waiting since November. Both on ILR. Just the luck of the draw!

nah its very simple straight forward . I got ILR in 2013 November and applied for naturalization in March 2015 because I had traveled due to family reason and the days were more than 90 days so I waited for few months and when i was applying so by then the days were reduced to 54 during last 12 months from the date of application.

Has anybody's fees been taken today? Application
reached Home office on 19 March n no fees taken yet...

cinared · Post by **cinared** » Tue Mar 31, 2015 3:19 pm

No fees taken either

... must be due to backlog of people applying before the new fees. Hopefully they wont make me pay more since the application been with them since last week.
