Naturalisation application received but amount not debit yet

[kishorek]

Dear Friends,

I applied the Naturalisation application via NCS on 26 Nov 2012 and the application was reached the address on 28 Nov 2012 but the application amount is still not debited from my account. Do I have to wait for some more days or shall I call them. If so can anybody provide the contact number to ask for the status. Please advise.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Regards
Kish

Wait. It is too early (only 3 working days). Sometimes it takes them longer or it takes longer to show in your account.

Hi Jambo,

Thanks for your reply and advise.

I have note received the acknowledgement that's why I am bit worried.

Thanks again.

Hi Kishorek

I was wondering whether your fees have been debited?

I had my NCS appointment on 17 November and the UKBA received the application on 20 November (per Royal Mail) but the money has not been debited to my account. I attached a cheque as I wanted to avoid the possibility of my bank declining the payment. No signs of an acknowledgement as yet.

Can someone advise?

Hi, don't worry you will get acknowledgement soon. They will deduct fee first then usually send acknowledgement. I apply on 22 November 2012 they received on 26 November 2012 but debit fee from my Credit Card on 6th December and still didn't receive acknowledgement.

I sent them an e-mail on 29 November 2012 and they reply it will take 3-4 weeks for acknowledgement in busy period.

Many thanks Skymoon. That is very reassuring!

All the best for your application.
