British Citizenship application delay
Posted: Sun Jan 07, 2018 8:55 pm
Hi everyone,
I applied British Citizenship in July 2017 with following dates,
Eligibility criteria: Residence Permit as Family member of an EEA national 5 years + 1 year PR card
Language criteria met: Trinity+Life In The UK
Nationality: Pakistani
Method of application: NCS
Date of application: 24/07/2017
Payment method: Debit Card
Biometrics has done: 05/08/2017
Date of approval: Waiting
Now after 5 months of my application, I received a letter dated 28/12/2107 that they can't make decision of my application within 6 months. The decision is delayed. We expect to make a decision on your application as soon as possible but we will write you again if this is not going to be possible.
Is there anyone going through same situation? I will really appreciate if anyone can advise that how much extra time they can take to approve my application.
Many thanks,
Aiden
