Congrats MisterLysenkiy

Just wanted to check if anybody who has applied from Edinburgh NCS or any of the Scotland council and has received an approval this month? Please let me know your timelines.

Congrats to all who received approval this week. It seems home office is working over the weekend. That's really remarkable.

Thanks krisbal.

Thank you.
That post was when I applied for citizenship through NCS. I meant to say what were the docs NCS asked and the originals were returned back. From HO, we receive only approval letters. Apologies for the confusion.

Thanks

Congrats krisbal. You mentioned home office sent back all original documents. However in my case the original documents were never taken during NCS service. They had taken the photocopy only.

Oh that's great. Good to see they have a positive response. Keeping hopes alive.

It seems HO has a standard answer. I haven't heard from anybody who was told that the application was completed. Any thoughts on the call representatives ?

Anyone who has submitted the application through NCS Edinburgh council and have received approval this month?

Thanks dks100. Take your time. No hurry. Once again congratulations.

Congratulations dks100. I am very happy for you. Thanks for your keeping the hope alive. Hopefully you will still continue to maintain the spreadsheet. Cheers By the grace of God, I received mine and my son 's citizenship approval today. I received approval in a single brown envelope (normal not A4)...

Thanks vivdubes. Appreciate your support. Once again congratulations to you. Just one daft question. Was the confirmation letter send in first class delivery or second class.
