So, the UKVI office is testing a new online service which is great as I won't be anxious about the post every single day

https://contact-ukvi.homeoffice.gov.uk/ ... visastatus

Still in beta, and it seems like applications done in less than 4 weeks might not be traceable yet.

It is my humble request to moderators that please close this online status thread as service has been removed since 8th December and there is no obvious Benifit if continued.

If home office start new status checker , then new thread can be created in future.

I think I agree with you. Or if it is possible to edit the subject to something like 'Status of Your Application'

"The application status checker is a pilot service and is currently unavailable as it is under review."

This message from gov.uk website means that the service may return some time in the not very distant future, once IT fixes/improvements have been applied to it so that it could meet HO "service quality standards".

Hi guys. Just to keep you posted; I have today received the ceromony letter from the council but not the approval letter yet from the home office. Was advised that the decision letter was posted on the 2/01/2018. So yes!!!! the new year has kicked off very well for me (thanks god). I will update the full timeline once received the approval letter. Wish you all the very best luck

This is what I received yesterday
“Thank you for your email regarding your application for Naturalisation.

Unfortunately we are unable to give time frames for specific cases. However, your application is moving along and we anticipate it will be done within the six month service level agreement.

Thank you for your continued patience.
Kind regards,

Nationality“

Hi there, I applied in June. And in mid November 2017, I got similar letter with similar wording.. But Only to further say my application raises complex consideration, and it comes with additional questionaire to fill, with more supporting docs, and return to Home office, within 10 working days.

I filled it, sent it, and my approval came after that. My application time frame took upto 5mnths and two weeks. Nearly 6mnths.

In my case, I know the reason it took long, cos I had overstayed my work permit at some point, upto 15months.

But in the end, I still got approval.

What is your situation or condition, in the past, before making citizenship application?
Have u overstayed or any gap in your uk immigration status before?

@Haris_Zam, I feel ur pain. Mine is quite similar except I applied in August. I’ve emailed them severally too for updates but got no reply. I rang them on Friday and was told to wait till the 6month period as well. They are quite rigid lol. Well, guess we just have to wait and see what happens

May be they are revisiting the reason they refused your T1 G extension. What was the reason for the refusal of the extension?

I applied on 7th July and only got the approval letter this weekend (approval letter dated 20th Dec - before Christmas!).

Funny enough - I emailed citizenship support on 20th Dec (exactly the same day when my application got approved). They only responded to me on 3rd Jan saying it had been decided and I'd receive a letter within 10 working days.

I agree with you - it's been a frustrating process. Keep your chin up - you'll receive yours soon I'm sure. Good luck!

I was living in Woolwich when I registered to this site some years ago, but I've now moved to Croydon. Their next group ceremony is on 31st Jan, so I've booked a private one for tomorrow!
