I would like to add from my own experience. My application was decided on 16th May however when I receive the letter on 9th June (it was dated 30th May) so it can happen that some applicants don't receive within the 10 working day period as they may have not prepared the letter although application ...

I applied for naturalisation 6 years after marrying EU citizen ...

According to my SAR record, I acquired PR on my 5th wedding anniversary

I just wanted to update all on this trial service update from my own experience. My application was decided on the 16th May (as per tracking website) however I just received my approval today (9th June 2017) with the approval letter dated 30th May 2017. I think mine is the only one that has been so...

Do you remember what you applied for? Did you meet the 5 years treaty rights or did u submit 5 years of treaty rights documents when applying for PR (if you did)? For naturalisation, you will sadly need the PR (acquired it for one year) before you can apply for BC. If you have documents to show that...

Mine said "Decided" on 16th May but until today I have not received any letter (it says I should receive a decision within 10 working days). Thinking about all the approvals in Jan and Feb 2017 which got their letters in less than 2 weeks; i'm getting worried that it may be a rejection as it's been...

Hi uk007. Did you manage to sort this out? Any updates ? Did your university provide any letter when you first applied for NI. If you still (!) have that letter, that might help proving that you are authorised by the university to work and apply for NI Nope, I only have mark sheets from the college...

What did you apply for? If naturalisation, why have u been suspended at work even with ILR or PR?

Usually, you receive a letter with your PR card. On the letter, it tells you the date that you acquired PR. That is the date that you will need to use to count 12 months from. Hope that this helps! I think that is for applications towards the mid to end of last year (2016) as when I got my letter i...

Thanks Plabo.

I've emailed them but it takes 20 working days for a response.

I hope there is nothing wrong with my application as they decided it but I have not receive a decision

Hello all, Anyone has the telephone number or has contacted UKVI lately? I paid £5.48 to email them and no response I paid another £20 to ring them (Telephone: 00 44 203 481 1736) and they can't find my reference number and insist that my reference number should start with GW. The line was so fuzzy ...

Do you have your Royal Mail tracking number? or even the reference number from HO letter? You can even try with your BRP number to see (although mine listed the time when my PR was approved).

Hi guys Please this service is not 100% accurate, the reasons are: I applied for BC on 18th of April 2017; Am still yet to receive acknowledgement letter; Am still yet to receive letter for Biometric: Application fee yet to be taken from my account: when I checked tru this service, it says Awaiting...

Home office wants you to prove that you got permission from them, they not asking that you applied for NIE.So you need to prove that you ask for work from ukba not from work and pention. As i said before (GOOD CHARACTER)issue is here. I told you before your image given How do you get work permissio...

From your post i observed that in 2005 on your visa it says clearly that if you want to work you need to apply for this because if you see other student visa they were clearly allowed 20 hours work and was mentioned on their observations. Now home office will raise this issue that you didn't apply ...

Yea I agree with your statement as I was also on student visa ... I've been trying to google out and see where to get this authorisation and no mention how on any website.

I'm hoping someone else with the same experience can shed some light

Did u send them your 2005 student visa?

Did u work over the limit?

First Visa was issued on December 2005, sticker on passport, Visa Type "VISA STUDENT" on Obsrv it states "No recourse to public funds, Work (and any changes) ...
