Thank you for the topic PTPP. I am an BC-EEA dual citizen myself. My spouse has ILR-refugee and ILR-EU Settled. Applied July 2019, pending for over >9 months, as many other applicants in the previous topic. What is interesting is that in our case, BC spouse & EU Settled status (after refugee route ...

I know a lot of Europeans already waiting far over a year and get generic replies when they inquire. Many people from all kind of backgrounds waiting. I would appreciate if you would please at least provide the figures. By its nature your reply says that should Europeans have a special priority, sh...

Dear All, I have created a separate topic for refugees, who experiences the delays over 6 months. If like to take a part in the collective letter and express your interest, please refer to the topic, where we can discuss further actions and keep updated. https://www.immigrationboards.com/british-cit...

Dear All, You might have already seen in the other topic , that majority of refugees applicants, who applied for naturalisation, are experiencing massive delays in processing their applications. As you know, when refugees contact the Home Office, it disrespectfully replies using standard wording and...

Hello Winter1234 I completely support you and everyone who suffers the massive delays must do the complaint. If no clear reply, send the complaint to the ombudsman. I am sure MP will sign it easily because they are also fed up with home office. It is majority of refugees suffer the most delay. We t...

Hello everyone,, yesterday i did my corona test and it was positive. i dont know what gona happen with me, i just want to know that for example if i will be no more after a month what HO will do with my AN application ? is there any way can i take my fee back, because i am not any more interested i...

Hello everyone, I applied for naturalisation in middle of July 2019 and it is more than 9 months now. I contacted HO several times and every time they provided me with a stupid excuse. I made a complaint and received another stupid response. I filled the form of ombudsman and sent it to my MP for s...

Hi PPTP
Thanks for asking
May I know how to make an official complaint and how long it takes .

Hello mrafgsharoon

The complaint procedure was discussed on the page 274. Please refer to this page and have a look.

Hello there Hope that you are all keeping safe Can't all of us settled via refugee routes and waiting more than 6 months ( so much more ) for the outcome of the BC application write a lobbying letter , shared later or something to raise our issue as one voice ? And maybe publicly What do you think ...

Hello PPTP, have you had any experience with complaints about BC application(s)? Thank you!

I did the complaint. They also noted and blamed coronavirus that it will take longer... (even thought it was over 6 months submitted...)
Currently waiting for a second review of it...

Hello dear all friends I have contacted HO on 19-April-2020 to ask for an update This what their actual reply was I refer to your e-mail of 19 April 2020, received in our office on 20 April 2020 regarding your application for naturalisation as a British citizen. Unfortunately there is little that I...

Hi, Did you receive the approval through post or email? And approval date must be 22/4 (April)? 10 months later finally got my Approval letter!! Eligibility:5 years refugee status+5 years ILR Language criteria:UK Degree + Life in the UK Method of application:Online + New service Date of application...

Thanks for your reply. To be honest, I started looking at this threat today thanks to the advise of CR001. I will make sure I keep a look at it every week and let you know in case I have any update myself. I suspect that Home Office will not send out anything until the restrictions are removed. It ...

Hi all, As many of you I am waiting for the Home Office to communicate their decision in regards to my Naturalization application. I am following almost daily the news in the forum, especially the posts where we can track the application timelines each month. When checking there it seems that no me...

Just got an information from my mate. HO is dealing immigration interviews online now. But I don’t know how they will do online interviews for BC or ceremonies though! There are no "immigration interviews" for naturalisation, it's not an immigration application. Perhaps you can provide a source, we...

Good morning I have received this email today after email FMT asking for an update Good Morning, Thank you for your email. I can confirm that a decision has now been made on your application, confirmation of this will be dispatched shortly, please allow at least 28 days for this letter to arrive Ki...

they would find something like "the delays because the sun shines too bright and caseworkers could not work hard enough ..." Lol (Not related to the Home office) You may mock, but the " wrong kind of sunshine " has been known to cause train delays. Ha ha ah that favor has been already used. I am su...

:D I'm waiting for a message from HO where they will tell us that all applications will be done quicker, because since the lockdown started they have had no new applications (applicants can send the application, but not the documents and the fingerprints) :D Ha ha ha :D :D You made me laugh! Even i...

Top secret, I would offer to arrange a complaint. Do not be afraid of making complaints. This is our rights to complaint especially in this case and paid service, if we live in a democratic country and every person is allowed to express his/her opinion. Also see this post on how to write a Pre-Acti...

I got this email from HO today. Dear .......... We aim to process all applications within 6 months from the date submitted. However, in certain circumstances this target is not possible. Following our assessment of your child’s case, unfortunately it appears your child’s application will not be pro...

Hi everyone, i got my B1 certificate awarded by trinity college London on 26th April 2018, i did not use this in my indefinite application because it was not required due to refugee route. I applied for citizenship in October and still waiting for decision. I wanted to know that as my B1 certificat...

I honestly (respectfully) don't think people who haven't experienced the levels of delay we have had (I'm coming up to 12 months!!) should speak for us, or even speak on this matter at all. Frankly speaking you're not best placed to! The privilege bit we understand, but this is not a get out of jai...

Thank you for sharing your view. I agree, I was privileged and lucky enough to get mine in over two months, I am not even trying to hide that. But when I applied, I resigned to the fact that obtaining a nationality is a ‘privilege but not a right’. So, while I would have been frustrated if I didn’t...

Hi Lostintranslation333 and all Hope that you are all safe with your beloved ones. I do not think that the delay in these hard times is the main issue, and we all understand that these times are exceptiona and no body should risk their lives and leave home unless it is essential and front line work...
