I have my citizenship ceremony coming up in the next couple of weeks. I am wondering for the pledge or oath you decide to take in a public ceremony, do you have to say it individually in-front of everyone, or do you say it all at the same time?

I don't know what to expect so please let me know

Hi, I applied for British Naturalisation in December, it's getting past the five mark month. I have not received any news or correspondence from the Home Office. I have seen some people have gotten a email saying that their application will not be completed in the six month time frame. When is this ...

Hey Guys, I am getting to the five month mark on my citizenship application. I am starting to prepare that I will not hear anything back and I will need to chase the home office myself on my application. Could people please tell me the best way to contact the home office in regards to a decision not...

I just want to be registered as settled status so I can legally remain in the UK Actually, since you are an EU citizen, you don't need a biometric card; only the electronic status, so you are fine; no need for biometrics at all. Do drop them a line and ask for an update. Sounds like you should have...

Hi, I applied for British citizenship as an EU citizen on the 14th of December 2020. Its nearly been 5 months since my application and I have heard nothing back about an approval from the home office. When do you usually get an email from the home office stating that your application will not be com...

I just want to be registered as settled status so I can legally remain in the UK

they still haven't updated their processing times on the website which is pretty poor communication in my opinion! Not poor communication, but policy. Look at this Freedom of information request , asking for up-to-date processing times for 2021. It has been denied. They do not have the intention (o...

Ohhh ok thank you! Have you applied for pre or settled status? I have heard the home office is jammed with last minute applications, however they still haven't updated their processing times on the website which is pretty poor communication in my opinion!

Hi, I applied for my EUSS last Tuesday. I already applied for permanent residence and obtained it three years ago. So when I did my online application it said I should be eligible for settled status. I am living in the UK on my Italian passport. I have been living here for 10 years this year. It say...

FYI - note this article written by a legal professional: https://www.freemovement.org.uk/eu-residence-documents-are-no-longer-valid-after-30-june-2021 Quote: "Merely applying for citizenship does not give you any particular residence rights under UK immigration law. If you have applied for citizens...

Hey Guys,

Thanks for both your reply, I think I am going to call and inquire about this on the application hotline, I really need to obtain the correct advice on this. I'll let you know the outcome.

Ciao cmar2017, thank you for your reply and insight. My question is though, what if I do not hear back about my application in time before the 30th of June, when all EU citizens by then need to be registered by the EUSS to stay legally in the UK? I feel like if they have not made a decision about my...

Hello, I applied for British Citizenship on the 14 of December 2020 . I applied as an EU citizen and already have permanent residence. I have not yet applied for the EU settlement scheme because I was hoping a decision would be made about my British Citizenship by now and I wouldn't have to worry ab...

Does anyone know what's happening with the EEA2 residence card applications that are in process? I second that.
