Thanks. Wondering on the validity issue? Does valid means In time application before expiry of current leave or as per fulfilling the requirements? Will this be an issue? I personally not in favour of sort of delaying tactic but it's a genuine problem many may be facing and any help will be much app...

Jaaz I did not use check and send service but it should not take more than 3/4 days if yours was sent in a batch. Perhaps you can check with the PO when it was sent. After HMPO receive your application it usually takes 2weeks to get the interview letter. Mine was issued around 2weeks of fee deductio...

I booked mine after receiving the letter which I received on the 2nd day from issue date. This letter is sent through 1st class post. You would need to call the number on the letter giving them your reference number printed on the letter. So it is unlikely that without a reference number they will b...

At the check in hand over your British passport with NICOP and you do not have to fill in the landing card in Pakistan. The Q you will be using at th...

Thanks Apple02. Yes I went for a private ceremony. I didn't use c&s and sent it straight via recorded delivery. Though suggest to use special delivery and cross on secure delivery (on the form) for the return of document, as my documents were returned using 2nd class post and the envelope was open. ...

shak80 remember that tiny glue I mentioned earlier that is what nearly means
your application is APPROVED awaiting despatch. If you have included your special delivery envelop check it approx. 9:30PM and it may be showing as posted and expected to be delivered tomorrow before 1PM. Chill out

Congratulations Muhammad13 glad to hear about your approval letter. Others waiting may have their approvals already printed just waiting for tiny glue to seal the envelope and off it goes
May Allah bless us all.

Congratulations nionlight and mkaleem. Hope the remaining ones will see theirs very very soon.

It is the first time I have seen this thread at 2nd page of the forum. It seems that there is no progress for the remaining ones so far.

That probably is the reason. It used to be first alphabet of your surname followed by numbers. So this must be your HO reference number. Don't worry too much things will be alright.

Usually the ref number on acknowledgement starts with NFEE. Did you all paid by cheque? May be for cheques they use a different reference starting with A,b, c etc.

yes they are right it is 6(2) for spouse of BC.

Thanks

Its mainly section 6(2) Naturalization as a spouse of BC. Did you apply as a spouse if not it is a mistake from their side. If its not as a spouse and based on residence it should be 6(1).

Shak80 I contacted the HO twice through e-mail and I had the response back from the same person. That means that HO may have an automated redirection based on e-mail address of the enquirer. The name mentioned in your case is no just computerized response in my opinion through may be based on the in...

I just rang the HO and they confirmed that my invitation for citizenship was sent off on Friday.

Fantastic news Astracastra and congratulations to you too. This week will be a conclusive week for oct applicants.

Thanks everyone. It's good to see how many well wishers I have made at one stage I even said that I should take a retirement when none of my predictions/guesses were working What a journey it was.
Thanks once again for all of your comments.

Dear Friends, Last night I was worried as my application was awaiting approval but this morning to much anticipated letter took my worries away. YES I have got it !!!!! The letter was dated 04/02/2014 and received today. I am so glad and praying for all of my friends of this forum that they will get...

You are quite right nionlight, it may be the case that information/checks are required on some of those waiting, but how come such checks are not completed by now looking at miraculous 5days approval time for two of the November applicants. Don't know why is it happening to us.
