Hi. I applied for naturalisation, with my wife, through NCS in August. I got confirmation with in 6 weeks. However due to issues with my daughter's references (born outside UK, on ILR) I ended up sending her MN1 application via post 1 week after.

Its almost 6 weeks since myself and my wife had our confirmation. I am now getting worried about my daughter's MN1 reg.

Calling HO is of no use. I have sent a further letter explaining the events, 2 weeks ago but have not heard from HO yet.

Any one has similar experience?
I wonder sending my daughter's application via post rather than NCS and separate from our application delaying the process?

Any thoughts...its now 3 months since i have sent the application for MN1...

When was the fee taken? When did you receive the acknowledgement letter?
NCS or postal should not matter much.

Thanks Jumbo

I sent application 3rd Sept. Got letter dated 13 or 14 sept.

On the MN1 form i had ticked joint family application but as i have said earlier, i ended up sending MN1 form for my daughter seperatly and that to via post

Last month i sent them a letter explaining the events. However even that has been now 4 weeks ago.

As usual calling them is no longer an option. I did not get any reply except wait for 6 months.

I would not worry too much. 3 months is not unusual. You will probably receive a decision in a few weeks.

Thanks Jumbo.

Finally got the certificate for my daughter.
It took 13 weeks by post ( as against 6 weeks for our own application via NCS)
