Why will a letter issued on the 12 Feb not arrive before the one issued on 16 Feb. 1 January applicant received his letter dated 16 Feb today 19 Feb.

HO ways? you never know.

Received Citizenship Letter yesterday. Did not have ceremony date on it as like few others, however called the local council and they had a record of my approval and ceremony date was advised as 5th March. It has taken 2 months exactly for the letter to arrive given the Xmas and New year holidays, ...

Hi vengud123, IIRC they told you on phone that your approval was despatched on the 10th of February, any luck with the approval letter or call from the council for ceremony yet? Mine was despatched on the 11th apparently, but no updates yet. Regards Haven't got anything yet mate.... will let you kn...

I really think it depends on who you get through to. I guess they have a system which is a bit complex for some of the guys on the call. What do you say to this, somebody's experience this; called in the morning she was told approval letter sent out already and later realised she did not ask what da...
