WOW I am relieved as I finally received my passport today , less than 3 weeks since applying , so processing is quite prompt.

Hi, I hope your process speeds up now. I found it strange that the envelope containing my Certificate of Registration had a receipt date which was 1 month earlier than the date when I received my invitation (ie my Registration Document was at the High Commissionj or consulate for a full month before...
xxxxxx in the Courier service is a star, she also got my Case Worker onto my application very quickly, with some patience your process will soon be completed!
Hi Ballet, I must admit that after all the waiting finally getting my receiving my Certificate of registration as a British Citizen came with some relief rather than elation! The ceremony itself was held at the High Commissioners home and there must have been 50 -60 people in attendance (no visitors...
Hi, yes I did receive an e-mail confirming approval of my biometrics. - the time lapse was only 4 days from the date that biometrics were done, however I see that some had to wait up to 90 days before approval , the e-mail read as follows :- I can confirm that your application has been successful . ...
Hi Ballet,
you indicated that you sent copies of your current RSA and ID as documents for your passport application , did you have these certified in any way?
Hi Ballet,
Could you maybe advise what supporting documents were required to be submitted to Durham after making your online application, also were originals required?
Congratulations, Now you must be truly elated!! :D :D :D For us South Africans this is really potentially a life changing event. Personal thanks , your recommendations have really helped in my process and reduced waiting time , - my ceremony is next week, so a passport next month will be a really go...

Hi Ballet, I am progressing into my 9th week from approval of my application , have queried at the beginning of the week with both Citizenship support and Consul in Capetown, but thusfar no response .

Perhaps each case worker completes their load in date order but it seems that not all case workers are...
