Here's my timeline:
Criteria: 5 year WP + 1 year ILR
Type: Solicitor
Date of submission...................27/05/2011
Date application received by UKBA....31/05/2011
Date of debit or credit card.........09/06/2011
Date of receipt of acknowledgement...14(or 15)/06/2011 (dated 09/06/2011)
Date of receipt of approval..........waiting
Also wanted to share some official data that could shed some light on possible processing time change since April:
http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/publicatio ... iew=Binary
It shows that the number of settlement granted every quarter through different route in the past years, which gives us a rough estimated number of eligible applicants for BC in 12 months time (mostly those through employment and family, I suppose..).
I also would like to suggest that we only call HO when necessary as this report indicates it might have impact on case workers:
http://icinspector.independent.gov.uk/w ... enship.pdf
Anyway, that's my two pennies.
Thanks guys
James
Thanks a lot for the information JamesinDerby, maybe this will explain to a lot of applicants as to when and when not to contact HO!!
Good job!

Thanks Nazia.
Private ceremony is definitely an option. I am wondering, if there are any other alternatives.
Regards,
sworld

Congratulations sworld. What I can advice is that you call up your council and ask or beg them even if you can switch to another council for the ceremony. I'm thinking of doing the same when I get my approval!

I believe they only ask for additional information from postal applications, the reason for NCS is to make sure all informations are submitted at the biginging but I might be wrong. I also believe once an application have gone through the background/security check, there shouldn't be any reason to ask for more information.

approvals seem to have slowed down (forum members) tremendously over past few days. Also number of applicants in June (forum members) seem to have gone down quite steeply.

I don't think it has slowed down at all. if you look at the good work by Osteophytes, you can see that the average rate of approval (based on the forum members experience) have come down from 70 days to about 55 days from March to May. also I think some of the June applicant will only be finding their way into this forum soon. having said that, I am in a similar mode to mego_1980. have a number of work related travel coming up. wanted to see if I can sort out everything by early Aug.

As far as I can see, you can only apply for passport after you have your nationality certificate in hand (i.e after ceremony). It might be possible to get thing sorted in about 40-45 days but my feeling is on top of a tidy application and supporting docs, you will also need a very good run of luck with the dates of approval, ceremony and passport interview etc. good luck.

Yes, you should be able to do that provided its been scanned into the system. Call HO and they will tell you, you can then travel on your passport while your application is being processed.

Thanks skr27 for your replay, sorry if my topic was not clear enough but I meant can I request my Egyptian passport while applying for BC as I have to go to Egypt in August and I don't think the HO will be able to finish my BC application before August based on the current timeline.
