Hi Binip,
I think they are lying. People have theirs who applied in February. Now they won’t even tell me what is going on with my application I am going to write a complaint.

I feel like we're being penalised for no reason.
It takes British passports a matter of weeks to get re-issued and yet we have to wait nearly 6 months. It's incredibly unfair

When did you apply for yours binip ?
I honestly thought I would have my travel document this week but it’s not looking that way now I have no idea what’s going on. They told me I will find out shortly ! What does shortly even mean ?

[binip88]

I applied on February 7th hopeful. I have lost all hope now.

I applied some time in Feb for a renewal of a TD
I was sent a letter in March with instructions to do a BRP. My family and I completed the brp on the 20th of march and are still currently waiting.

Don’t loose hope binip we are in this together.
They have emailed me saying I will know shortly when it is concluded. So I don’t know if that means days, weeks, months...

Hi everyone this is my first time I have applied for a travel document. Did anyone apply 28 February and received their travel document? Thanks Applied by post 26.02.2018 Home office took payment 28.02.2018. Acknowledgeme & brp enrolment 13.05.2018 Still waiting...

[Hopeful25]

Today is 101 working days! And still nothing. I have emailed Travel document team and they just say it will be processed (shortly) they have been saying that for the last 2 weeks I cannot get any more information. It’s like a joke

Hi hopeful, i know how annoying is that, but we all on the same boat, i advice you to leave it forget about it,and you will get your TD shortly, maximum i think will be by the end of the next week.

[Miss mimi]

hi guys I applied for CTD on 6.03.18 and sent my BRP and expired CTD on the same date.

I haven't received any acknowledgement so far ? anyone of you guys had or having the same experience?

I'm in the same boat too, I did my online application on Feb 26 and sent my documents on Feb 27th. HO received on Feb 28. Still I haven't received a confirmation and I really need my BRP back. I sent HO an email asking them to confirm receipt of my application though. Hoping I get my BRP back at least this month. Also it's my first time applying for a CTD.

I'm just tired of waiting, and to think that they no longer ask for the BRP. I almost regret applying immediately after getting my refugee status

Hi there, we have the same time line have you heard anything from home office yet?

[Hopeful25]

The below email is what I receive after 100 days waiting

Hi Binip, have you tried to email them ? Have you had any response ?

[binip88]

Hi hopeful, yes I did.
But it was a standard message saying 'aim to complete within 70 working days' and that they can't provide a timeframe.

I think it will just turn up when you are not expecting it. I know it’s hard. I don’t know why they can’t give us a straight answer to what is happening. We are entitled to this document and paid for it.

[binip88]

Problem is, I'm expecting it every single day!
