Congratulations to all the June applicants who got their results. Just make me wonder though. How come March and April applicants are still waiting and June applicants have started getting results.

UPDATE!! I received all of my documents today as well as an approval letter!! I wasn't expecting it at all. I applied on the very first day of June. In fact, I sent my documents to the Home Office on the Friday or Saturday before the 01/06, so I could also be classified as an end of May applicant, ...

You just need to go and give your fingerprints at the station. There is nothing to worry about as you did not commit any offences. It's possible this was the result of identity theft (ie someone assuming your name), but that's why they are asking for you to provide your fingerprints to check if this...

No, I mean how is it possible that you applied in April, but got acknowledgement on 30 March?

How is this possible?

They say they have approved 17,077 applications for BC in Q2. It’s not clear what this means. At first glance it would look like they’ve approved half of the Apr/May/June applications already, but as we know only a few Aprils and no May/June applications have been approved. So it can’t mean that. I...

Not looking great for the MN1 1(3) applications. Got the following response from Home Office: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/statistics_for_mn1_13_applicatio#incoming-697723 Based on the statistics provided, 76% of March applications are still pending. So for April, May, etc. will be still ...

Hi, Do any of you guys know if I can use my travel document to go back to country of origin, even though am banned from entering with the travel document I have if am not planning on coming back to the UK?. Basically, can I still use the travel document to go back to my country of origin and am not...

Looks like Home Office is back to its normal mode of not giving any post-biometric approvals. Ladies and gentlemen hold your breath, the biggest news is going to be disclose and you may not believe :D I was a silent observer of this thread while waiting for my approval Applied 6th May NCS: Tower Ha...

Hello All, I have received my approval today! The waiting game is over. so relieved! Good luck to you all. Date of application: 2/04/2015 NCS Aberdeen Payment method : Debit Card Date of receipt by UKBA: 8/ 04 / 15 (tracking) Date of debit or clearance of fees: 24/ 04 / 15 Date of acknowledgment: l...

This is encouraging However, I think I have seen at least a dozen claims that a friend of somebody, or a client of some immigration lawyer, obtained a citizenship applying after 6 April, but I am yet to see a single confirmation with an actual timeline on this forum. I will believe it when I see at ...

Looks like they are not approving anything at all any more. Very few occasional pre-biometric cases are approved now and then, and no post biometric ones are approved at all. In the past, when there was a backlog, they were approving applications with a delay, but at least there was a constant strea...

Just look for any one who applied after 6th. As 6th Apr is the last day of pre-bio application. I beg to differ: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/changes-to-biometric-collection-categories Also, 6 April is Monday. New fees were also introduced on that day. All this leads me to believe that change...

I have a Masters degree from the UK. At the NCS, just in case, I wanted also to give my PBS calculator, but they simply refused to take it, saying that my degree certificate was enough.

Looks like the Home Office is now quite ashamed of its own performance: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/283645/response/691175/attach/3/FOI%20Response%2036220.pdf 1.

Home Office seems to be completely uninterested in post-biometric applications. The first April application in this thread was approved almost a month ago- on 16 July. And since then, there has been zero progress as far as biometric cases are concerned... :( Given that they have 95% target of consid...

Does anyone know how the process works? 1. What does UKBA do after receiving application, but before acknowledging or sending biometric requests? 2. Roughly how long does it take for a case to be allocated to a caseworker? 3 I read somewhere that caseworkers target 10 applications a day, is that tr...

It seems their speed of approvals is about 1 day per month.

Cw most likely coundn't care less about this board. It's best to come back to the point of the thread. It's quite annoying to see that the topic has been updated, only to find out that it's full of irrelevant jokes.
