She is non EU.
I am EU national.
It took 74 days to get my settlement decision.

Thank you, this is good to know.

Many applications are taking two months. My friend's mother got her pre settlement on January 17 2020. She applied online on November 14 2019 and provided biometrics on November 15 2019. Was this for a non-EEA application? EU citizens are not required to provide biometrics as they already have a bi...

I've finally received pre-settled status! I now wonder about the next steps, do I need to ask for a residence card? Also my wife is non EEA so she'll be asking for pre-settled as well (we got married in the new years!). Application date: 30 November 2019 (2772 AUC) COA: 30 November 2019 (2772 AUC) ...

Hi, I applied for pre-settled status on the 30th of November, received the COA the same day. I'm from Spain, I've been working for 2 years in the UK. I am still waiting. :roll: I'm quite unimpressed. Waiting my self since mid November. Patience my friend is the key This is a bit worrying, you have ...

Hello, my partner who is an EU citizen applied for Settled Status on 25th November. So far she has not received a decision and we have now passed the 45-day waiting time that was reported by other applicants. It would be good to hear from other people who applied in November as to whether they have ...

Thank you CR001, I've read through the threads you provided. So if I do the following: - Change my name by Deed Poll. - Use Deed Poll to change my name with the Bank I have an account with and get a Bank Statement in the new name. - Obtain evidence that my country of origin does not allow changes in...

Hello, I need some advice please. I now have my Certificate of Naturalisation and I want to apply for a British Passport but at the same time I want to change my name. This is so that I can use an anglised version of my name in the UK (I also have a passport from an EU country). I was under the impr...

It takes a while for the stuff to get to the post room to be sent. That's useful to know, thank you. So the prepaid envelope will likely reach the post room on Monday and I should get it on Tuesday. You should also note that if you are using the new trial BETA service to track your application, it ...

Your documents will likely come in the prepaid envelope. The decision letter comes in an A5 brown envelope, 2nd class mail (looks a bit like junkmail post). Thanks CR001, but how do you explain that I have not yet received my documents back if HO used the prepaid Special Delivery envelope and the d...

Surely they should use the prepaid SD envelope to send back my documents? Why would they not? And I heard that sometimes they do send the approval letter in the prepaid envelope but at other times they just send it in a brown envelope using second class post. Anyone else can offer an opinion on this?

Usually send using their own brown envelope and will send approval letter, your prepaid envelope together with your documents. Thanks Chinho. So if I understand your reply correctly, the HO wiil send back to me the Decision Letter, my documents and my prepaid Special Delivery envelope inside their ...

Hello, When the HO asked for additional documents I sent them to the HO together with a pre-paid Special Delivery envelope. I assumed that when they reach a decision, they will send back to me my documents together with the Decision Letter in the pre-paid envelope. My question is: does the HO use th...

Thank you Ktlkaaa and Pumpkinlu, your suggestions make sense.

Anyone please?

How were you maintaining yourself, were you claiming any benefits. No bank statement showing you were making transaction from your account. Hi Obie, Thank you for your reply. I was living from my savings, I did not claim any benefits. I can provide bank statements showing normal expenses (paying bi...

Hello, I need some advice please. I have received a letter from the Home Office requesting alternative evidence of residence for the past 5 years, because I am an EEA national. I have previously provided PR letter, passport, etc., and none of these are in question, but they now seem to want me to pr...

I would say that now the time to a Decision has increased to 4 months for those that applied in March. So it will probably be July before we receive our decisions. Does anyone know what is causing this significant delay? In Jan/Feb people received their approvals in 2-2.5 months but now waiting time...
