No updates for me

Applied on the 1st of May, called today after seeing a lot of others getting their approvals, only to be told that it's currently in progress and can take up to 6 months...
Oh well

I applied on the 2nd April, still I've never heard anything! Just it can take up to 6 months and very rarely goes over 6 months. I guess it will come when it comes, there's no point being concerned as they have never written asking for anymore details, so inshallah it will come when ready. We will ...

82 days here too. Not entirely sure what's happening tbh. When I call, sometimes they tell us that it's with caseworker and sometimes they just say it's not with a caseworker, and that's when some senior caseworker or someone call you back. Sleep on it, it's the best advise I can give to everyone in...

From what I know, she doesn't need to apply for citizenship as she already is British since she was born after you received your ILR.
You can apply for her passport straight away.

Theresa May ordered hundreds of staff to move from UK Visas & Immigration to the Passport Office, as this leaked letter to MailOnline revealed, to help clear the backlog. But unions said the move would leave other areas short staffed. Britain's beleaguered Passport Office is to be given 100 more st...

ID Please don't think I am stupid, I do know what the councils job is. All I am merely stating is what I have been told, she is contact with the caseworker who is working on my husbands application, and was chasing it up for me. For all the negativity I will be leaving the forum as I have found it ...

Marie1981, I'm guessing by NCS you mean Nationality Checking Service at your local council office. If that's right then they have nothing whatsoever to do with any decision making when it comes to naturalisation applications. They have two jobs, 1) Get your documents, photocopy them and send them ov...

I called in as well and was told that my application is still under consideration and no decisions as yet.
So even if they take decision tomorrow, I'll have to wait at least more than a week as letters take that long to deliver after being printed.
Oh well...let's just wait

and here I sit wondering why haven't they sent my letter yet...
Congrats to everyone who've received theirs btw.

@easylion - just wanted to make sure I understood your post correctly: You applied for citizenship on the 2nd of May and that you got your "app" (Approval?) letter TODAY - i.e. in 8 calendar days??! The second part of your post refers to your desire to pursue "due" (dual?) passports, correct? Is th...

If I were you, I would change after Naturalisation and Passport. Makes it a whole lot easier tbh.

Thank you dr_me for your very clear post. However I have one issue. I do not have NICOP. Can anyone see any problems. I am so confused now. Please help Use your British passport for travelling (both ways) and Pakistani passport as your nicop (just to prove that you're a dual national and don't requ...

I'm pretty sure that for children they need a professional person who is professionally engaged with the child. i-e teacher, gp, nurse, pharmacist etc.

Not sure if that's correct. Simply put, they don't take any expiry (of an English test) into the account when it comes to ILR or Naturalisation.

BC is not waste of money but English Requirements are really bad thought of. Saying that someone who’s been in full time education for 3 years here in UK and got a diploma doesn’t know Basic English is crazy. ESOL Entry Level 3 Speaking and Listening is basic English and you can’t Enrol in college ...

Hi dear iqhamid, could you please confirm me whether NARIC office confirmed your degree as a substitute of English level B1 which is required by ukba for naturalisation application? During my Initial HSMP application from Pakistan in 2008, I provided a letter issued by my university confirming that...

Hi all, Thanks you very much for all of you who participated in the discussion. Today I received the result of my re-assessment request. UK Naric has accepted the error and they appologised for it. Now they have assessed the B.Sc Chemical Engineering from UET, Lahore comparable to British Bachelor ...

That should be enough, your PGD should suffice.

If you used that TOEFL with your entry clearance application then you should be able to use that again.

Also, you check check points based calculator to see if it gives you 10 points for english using your PGD, if it does then you should be fine.

Dear Sir / Madam Thank you for your enquiry regarding the revised knowledge of Language and Life in the UK requirement that came in to force on 28th October 2013. We will accept a range of English language qualifications as evidence that an applicant has met the requirement to hold a B1 level speak...
