Thanks Tim. He never even asked us for payslips, possibly because our bank statement showed that we always have a good amount of money in our account even after all the bills and rent have left it. So i guess that would show we wouldn't be relying on benefits anyway. I also wrote a covering letter ...
something weird is going on. I just rang the register office of the nearby council (the same one who told me they were instructed not to accept anyone from another district) and this time they said it was fine and I could have my ceremony there on 21/04. It was not the same lady who I spoke to yest...
Thankfully we DIDN'T take the advice of the first person who commented. I wrote covering letters to explain anything that was missing. We got the visa today, no questions asked. But we may have just a had a nice case worker. My advice though to anyone applying for this visa is, take ALL documents, ...
Hello everyone! GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!! I got my letter today and I've been granted British Citizenship! I called this morning and I was told a decision letter had been despatched using Secure Mail-DX.

I am not living in London though not far from London. actually I applied at Wandsworth. Please let me know...
Any updates guys ( Brightest Star, freddfrog, kindly )? Today I rang UKBA to confirm the decision letter updates. They said decision letter is not yet issued however decision was made on 23rd of March 2010. They further added it takes upto 14 days to reach the decision letter to the applicant. Not s...
Congrats Yarons mate, I'm so pleased for you. :-) I knew it was good news! Sorry to hear about your ceremony dillema. It's quite a long time to wait although the private one is very expensive to almost extortionate. Bet they only do one very rarely so that they can charge that much or anyone wantin...

Tim555, it does seem like you get 2 in 1 if through NCS as there are no important supporting docs to send back - otherwise it's separate. I did ring my council register office last week and they didn't have my certificate yet. That was before I knew that I got approval. No letter came yesterday so ...
Hi all, Any update from anyone? Still awaiting my council ceremony invitation letter. If I don't hear by Thursday then I'll give them a ring to check if they have received the certificate. I'm hopeful to get into the 8th April ceremony. In the meantime, I'm completing the passport application form ...
Not really. Still waiting for my decision letter. Rang UKBA and they said it was dispatched yesterday so a few more days, I guess. God, this 2nd class post takes ages to arrive. UKBA should really start using 1st class post instead. I am hoping for a string of approval letters through the doors of ...
