Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

I didn't find out - that would have been part of my query. Sounds like you and I had the same call (likely with the same person).

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

Yes, I was approved by email in late May; complete radio silence since then. My council is Westminster and I have followed up a couple of times to no avail. I applied in March so perhaps a relatively quick turnaround during lockdown (wondering if backlog works by approval or application date). My c...
