Well, that's just disappointing. They cold have at least put a notice on the website. I cannot wait to never have to deal with these people again.

The people running this board are just well-meaning individuals who help people and nothing to do with HO. I, however, have to disagree with the sentiment that the tracker being gone is a good thing. More (and accurate) information can never be worse than no information (just look at Brexit). I woul...

Do we know if it's gone permanently? I don't think there's anything to suggest so. It might down for maintainence or an update.

Thanks, tallahassee, you make very good points and I really should have thought of them myself seeing as I've had 3 other case IDs myself.

All we can do is wait and hope, I guess.


Edit: In fact, I just checked those other 3 refs and the only one not recognised is the one from 2008.

I have a bit of an odd question. I randomly decided to check the reference that is 1 digit before mine (e.g. ends on a 6 if mine ends on a 7) and it was decided. Then I checked the one before the 6 (e.g. 4 because 5 did not seem to exist) and it was still Awaiting Decision. Have we had any informati...

The lack of consistency in treatment of these applications is really quite astounding but nothing unexpected from an HO which has never seemed to have its house in order since I have arrived in the UK.

Yeah, I myself am just being patient as I never expected an answer before the New Year. Compared to my DCPR (which took 4 months) where I had 0 updates and even worse, my blue registration certificate which took six months even though it was just a formality, this is nothing.

Having applied at the beginning of October, I was not expecting an answer any time soon but a few people with my circumstances have already been approved. Hoping to get something soon but still showing up as 'Awaiting decision' online.

People were reporting the updates appearing around noon. No point checking more than once a day since one must wait for weeks then anyway for the paperwork to go through. I'm also extremely frustrated, where in my (straight) case, I'm now waiting for 3 months longer then other people and my applica...

Hi all. Below is my timeline. Currently at 'Awaiting decision'. Eligibility criteria: EU national (9 years) + PR card for 11 months (letter from HMRC stating date of permanent residence after 5 years) Language criteria met: Degree from UK university Nationality: Bulgaria Method of application: NCS (...

Just give as much as you can and use the additional notes pages to explain why you are lacking the evidence.

A very stupid question. Who is supposed to fill out the name right at the beginning of section 5 (before 5.1). I assume it is me but wanted to double-check in case it is different.

Hi Zap Zap. I have gone online to HRMC on their gateway. I can see and download statement of my National Insurance record, Any good? That's what I need isn't it???? Hi. I found your thread very useful but I cannot find this option to download the statement of NI record. Can you please point me to w...

You need to submit an application with the ID/Passport you used to do LITUK/B1 with. Btw save your self the stress and use NCS, you will be able to keep all your originals hassle-free. That's quite useful information given that I have not seen guidance like that anywhere else. It seems like I might...

I am an EEA national (Bulgaria) and starting to fill out the form. I have two practical (and maybe somewhat stupid) questions. 1. What document should I use for the 'current passport/travel document number' (1.2 of the form)? I am travelling back to Bulgaria later this year and I plan to replace my...

That is bloody ridiculous. I hope I can go for citizenship before I have to apply for this new document. I am sick of Theresa May!

Hi dga, I will look into this when I get home. If I don't respond in here by Wednesday evening, post again, so I remember.

Noted above as:

The letter has nothing to do with SAR. Just send a cover letter explaining you need to know your PR date. I sent in some copied IDs but not sure if they were necessary. They didn't return them though.

Thanks, Right , that is really helpful. I will send off my letter shortly, taking a very similar approach; will post here when there's any news. Good luck! Hopefully this time you're successful and get the PR date. :) Hi maxima12 and others. I just received my reply from the Home Office today with ...

Hi, maxima12 and sorry for the somewhat late response. To answer your questions, I disclosed my Case ID and DCPR document number (the one that starts with UKF) in the letter. It was not asked of me but I thought I'd give them an idea even though from what I've seen on their database they should be a...

maxima12 , I called the British Citizenship helpline and the lady advised me to write to UKVI at this address and ask for the date. When I asked the question, she caught on quickly, so hopefully I get a response. I sent a letter today, so I will have to wait and see the result. I had to resort to t...

Thanks noajthan. Actually, I did not ask them to ring about the PR date at the time, I asked them whether they would ring the Home Office about it during the checking appointment and they said no. I get your point about trying a different one - I've now found two that are within an hours travel fro...
