Hi Guys I need some reassurance.
We are in the situation that I have applied for naturalization for my wife and since then I have relocated to UAE. Wife was supposed to join me once she gets the approval letter ( usually takes two months). But it seems that the application is taking a lot longer.
Case was really straight forward as follows.
Wife arrived on the spouse visa on 23rd April 2010. She left after staying a week and returned back after 5 weeks i.e. 6th of June 2010.
Since then she has hardly been out of UK.
We applied for her ILR in 2012 and we received it October 2012.
This year, we book appointment with NCS on 23rd of April so our application reached home office on 24th. (thus fulfilling the condition of being in the country exactly three years ago).
We received acknowledgement letter dated 27th April 2013 and fees was debited on 29th April.
Questions.
1. Can anyone spot any potential issue in the above circumstance that may leave to delay or refusal of the application?
2. We are happy to allow the naturalization process to take it time. (six months or longer). In the meanwhile wife can join me in UAE in the meanwhile and will go back to UK to ceremony and passport. ( if this cant be done in UAE).
3. However if she moves out and her application got rejected after six months of deliberation, (which would be in October 2013). Then we wont be able to re-apply as in October 2013 she would have spent more than 90 days outside the UK.
Can someone confirm that my thought process is right and I am not missing anything?
I know that it is difficult to predict the outcome of the application. However in addition to the above explained circumstances, there are no adverse elements ( e.g. no licence points, offences or benefits claims etc).
In these circumstances how safe would it be to assume that the application will eventually be successful ( even thought it is taking longer) and hence she can take a calculated risk of coming out to UAE. ?
Please oblige by your detailed insight............
