Eligibility criteria: section 3 (1 )
Method of application: Post
Date of application : 01.08.2017
Date of receipt by HO: 04.08.17
Date of debit of MN1 fees:09.08.17
Date of debit of passport fees: N/A
Date of Issuance of biometric enrolment letter: 25.08.17
Date of receipt of biometric enrolment letter: 28.08.17
Date of enrolment of biometrics:28.08.17
Date of approval: showed 'decided' on website on 06.11.17
Date of receipt of documents: 08.11.17
Date of receipt of registration certificate: waiting
Date of receipt of passport: N/A as I applied by post

There was an error in name spelling for one of my children in the biometrics letter so I had to request a correct one. This took around 10 working days in between to arrive.
I also only had one tracking reference number that worked on the tracking website so I'm assuming this covers both children. I will update once I receive the certificates.

I have applied my son's MN1 section3(1) citizenship in July and the status page still says 'Awaiting a decision'
My timelines:

Eligibility criteria: section 3 (1 )
Method of application: JCAP Enfield
Date of application : 28/06/2017
Date of debit of MN1 fees: 06/07/2017
Date of receipt by HO: 06/07/2017
Date of debit of passport fees: N/A
Date of Issuance of biometric enrolment letter: 08/07/2017
Date of enrolment of biometrics: 10/07/2017
Date of approval: showes 'awaiting' on website since 05/07/17
Date of receipt of registration certificate: waiting
Date of receipt of passport: N/A

No other updates since then, No communication from HO too. Status page still says 'Awaiting a decision'.

Looking at the above @Esther67 post, I am starting to worry a little bit.

I usually take a copy of my visa applications before I send them. I am currently looking at it, everything seems to be fine but my health visitor seems like she put my baby's data of birth instead of her's in the reference section.

Neither myself nor the lady in JCAP Enfield noticed it at that time.

I am starting to find even the smallest mistakes as I am panicking right now :oops: :oops:

Any words of confidence would be much appreciated.

Finally, Application status reached to 'Decided' and expecting Naturalization & BC in coming days.
After long wait, I've received Registration certificate & Passport.

Thank you every one in this thread for your support.
