General discussion on naturalization applications

[Scar]

There is 2 new posts in the timeline thread with people saying they have received "approval Email"
Anyone knows what that's about?

[gwrade]

I have asked for an update (I asked the biometrics email). They send me this reply. It seems very generic to me and not sure if the person replying means that my application has not been opened yet. I applied on Feb 2020.

Good morning

Thank you for your email, I apologies for the delay in responding.

The Home Office will endeavour to process applications as quickly as possible but in the current circumstances applications will take longer than normal to process, including applications for British Citizenship. If you have submitted an application and are concerned about missing a deadline to enrol biometrics, provide additional information or take a citizenship ceremony, please be assured that extra time will be allowed and applications will be held open during this period. No adverse decisions will be made on applications because of delays caused by Coronavirus.

Kind Regards

The previous forum was locked so posting on here.

I had received an email from the HO on 22/04 stating that a decision was made on my application on 09/03 and I should be getting the decision letter by 09/05. Anyone else had a similar email and have you received the decision letter yet? The enquiry email mentioned in the email from the HO below, does not exist and the helpline number folks have no clue about any letters being dispatched etc !

I got a reply last week but not stating the outcome:

Good Morning,

Thank you for your email.

I can confirm that a decision has now been made on your application, you should receive confirmation of this shortly, please allow at least 28 days from the date of this email.

The Home Office will endeavour to process applications and dispatch correspondence as quickly as possible, however in the current circumstances this will take longer than normal to process.

Kind regards,

UKVI

Has soemthing changed in past couple of days as couple of members receievd email stating 'approvals' emails??

Does this means that homeoffice is now sending the approval emails not letters?

[standrews]

Hi There,

Thanks.

[BootaKHAN]

Yes , I think HO start processing because very seen first message in March thread that someone applied in March 9th and got approved . Let’s hope every will get soon positive reply

I have seen that 2 members have received their approval decision through emails.

It would be useful if they can post here what exactly was sent! I am not sure if the home office has started sending approval by email as I have received a communication from HO that a decision has been made and the decision will be sent in 28 days. It has been 12 days so far and I am still waiting.

Yes, they are now emailing the decisions in pdf format. I know because I received mine yesterday. It was a simple email that you decision has been made, please check attached file for decision. In the attached email is the success letter and then a note reminding you that due to covid-19 ceremonies are on hold but an invitation letter would be sent once government changes movement rules pertaining to covid-19. In the meantime, remember you are not yet British till the ceremony as any mess up by you would lead to a review of your decision letter.
That is good enough for me as I never messed up and dont intend to mess up. I thought I'll give an update and hope my summary was helpful.
Thanks to everyone here who contribute to this board. I pray you receive your good news soon to motivate you to join in rebuilding our economy and taking it back from Covid-19.

I received the same email saying my my application was also decided on 9 March and I should wait till 9 May to receive my decision letter but I have not received it yet. I am thinking this email address is not authentic. I applied in February 2020

Many congratulations for all that received their positive decisions and thank you so much for sharing your experiences as sending decisions via emails is new by HO .it is efficient I think

All the best

[standrews]

In my opinion the most authentic email is <NationalitySupportTeamFMT@homeoffice.gov.uk> which delivered the application status, people quoted over many years.

There should not be any doubt over the genuinity of email having a domain <@homeoffice.gov.uk>

[BoyTed]

Congratulations to all those who received their decision via email it really lifted our spirits and please keep us in your prayers.
