Hi All,

We (me+wife+son) applied for Naturalisation in June (19th) and biometrics on 24th.
It has almost been 5 months (and I have a new job lined up that requires citizenship) - so I contacted the following emails request an update (hoping they would respond)
Citizenship.Support@homeoffice.gov.uk,
nationalityenquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk,
nationalitysupportteamfmt@homeoffice.gov.uk,
furthernationalityenquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk,
FurtherNationalityEnquiries@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk,
Furthernationalityenquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk

Luckily I recieved an email from Admin support saying: The applications have been decided and you will be contacted in due course.

I understand why they choose to be vauge - but not sure how to proceed. Should I (a) wait for email or post or letter from council soon (b) contact council and check (c) any experience of what "due course" could mean - days/weeks??

Congratulations! The Home Office will produce the certificates and send them to your local council(normally on every Friday). Then the applicants will get the approval on Monday. Hopefully you will get the approval email next Monday.

Is this true? I got approval on Monday and I emailed council yesterday (Tuesday) . They’ve not got my paperwork or certificate yet ... so can’t even book , while I’ve seen some people book on the day of their approval:(

Thank you - I will wait.
I have contacted my local counci (Devon) to check if they have received any letter. The nice lady said the council recieves letter 4 weeks after we recieve it. So asked me to call them later.

There seems to a wide array of options and responses from UKBA. I wish it was more standardised.

Congratulations.

What they replied from?

Thank you.
Do you mean the email address of the response? Its
<NationalitySupportTeamFMT@homeoffice.gov.uk> via homeoffice.gov.uk

Just recieved an email to attend ceremony in devon county council in two weeks time. So it is as suggested Friday receipt.
Thanks team
