Naturalisation application processing timelines (only)

[usman81]

Hi everyone,

I applied 1st June 2015 but i filled the form AN March version, when i check now there is new version from May .. Is anyone applied June with May version?

In theory they should have returned your application asking to complete latest version of form. It's been 6 weeks since you applied so they may have accepted that.

hi i will apply for naturalisation by the end of july.
about this 10 year employment page is it good to send all 10 year p60s with application. i know there is no requirment but just to save case worker time rather then contacting HMRC they will be having all proof in their hands.what do u sggest???

I don't think that will have any impact on the application. HO will check with HMRC regardless of your P60s. They need to verify them anyway from the source. That's their job.

I got my acknowledgement letter on 13/06 but still haven't got biometrics letter. Is this something to worry about? I was told by NCS that since I have already provided biomterics during ILR stage, I wouldn't need to provide them now.. but looking at the comments from all, everyone seems to have got biometric request. Can someone please confirm?

I think you will have to go for BIOMETRICS for naturalisation as well but not sure on how long does it takes after payment deducted.

Hi,

I applied on 01st June 2015. When I apply the application was March 2015. I just realised there is a May 2015 application. I used Barnet NCS. No one advised me at the NCS on 01st June 2015.

Anyone else have such situation ? Will this have an impact to my application.

I've seen people applied in the first week of May only just started receiving their acknowledgement letter alongside a biometric invite.
I applied on 11/05, but only had money taken more than 5 weeks after, on 18/06, although the two letters came in just a couple of days afterwards.

It appears that as long as they took your money, you are in the pipeline and in safe hands.
