Congratulations welldone!


Can I ask,
When I file a complaint, I choose the option "waiting for decision or documents".
Then when asking for a review of a complaint I file a new complaint choosing the option "An existing complaint" couting previous complaint number.

Is that the correct process to ask for a review?

I have done this multiple times throughout the past 2 years without a reply for the complaints review.

Am I doing it wrong?

Did you receive an answer to your initial complaint?

I received for one of the complaints a year ago and asked for a review within 3 months but didnt hear again about it. I have since made many complaints that get ignored.

I have recieved a new saru which is clearer than the previous one. The delay is due to an arrest 2 years ago for alleged assault. There was no evidence for it and the police didnt charge or caution me. No further ongoing investigations.

I sent further nationality an email with proof of this hoping this will speed things.

I do not have a criminal record , but have a vindictive ex wife trying to make my life difficult, which is soemtimes worse.

You can ask for a review of the complaint you got a response for.

Good at least that you know the reason why the delay has taken place - hopefully this is resolved now and your application will progress.

May I ask which type of SAR showed the detail/progress of your citizenship application? Basic or detailed?

I asked for detailed and wrote in the request to not redact the reason for the delay.

Thanks you
