Congratulations rnr79. I am sure you are mightily relieved.
your timeline says your application was received at UKBA on 17th May. so that make its about 79-80 days. So where there a long delay between submitting the application at the council and they sending it to UKBA?

91 Days after the application was submitted to the council

Thanks guys for all your guidance and support during hard time of waiting...

Nazia88 and other who are waiting...all my best wishes with you...I pray to GOD that you will receive your good news very soon...

I noticed one thing though people who applied in the same week as i did they are getting results...so guess UKBA deal applications in blocks instaed of individual cases...dont know (?)

Some people wrote here that the letter has Nationality team mentioned in it but mine doesnt have reference to any teams..

Sorry rnr79
I was counting from the day it got to UKBA (17/5/11) to the day they made the decision (4/5/11) which is the 79 days... forgot the additional 9 days that take to get the letter and the 3 days for the application to arrive at UKBA.

congratulations again... all the very best for the future.

Looking at the passport thread, 1664, Vipul and myself are more or less in the same times lines :-)

that's not waht i wanted to write - duh!

Saw someone had proactively called IPS to obtain the ref number and booked the interview than waiting for the letter to arrive...

1664/vipul - have you guys done this? perhaps an avenue we should explore?

Not planning to call them before this Friday or may be even Monday next week. I am travelling on 8th September, so should be still in time. I think its too early to call

shs123, ur application was also received on 11th August, which is last week Thursday. My personal opinion is that you should wait till Friday and then call unless you have any travel plans.

Hi Guys

Congratulations who got their approval or waiting for their ceremonies. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think this thread is only for British Citizenship Application discussions only and we should stick to the subject.
:wink:

thanks
