Have you changed your address since then and informed UKBA if you have?Casnel wrote:Hi

I recommend that you seek your MP's intervention. It has been over 6 months wait, when MP will inquire about your case HO may realize the age of your case and decide it on the spot.Casnel wrote:Hi guys. Thanks for your advice so far. Below is the response I got from UKBA. Not very useful though. I guess it is more waiting for me, It is hard to understand how quick they are to take the £850 application fee off you and then sit on your application for ages. I have been paying my taxes for nearly 10 years, never had any criminal offence or even a driving offence.

Thank you for your email.
I have checked our records and can confirm that no decision has yet been made on your application.
We aim to process 95% of applications within 6 months however there will always be a small percentage of applications that take longer than this to be resolved.
I cannot give a date by which this application will be resolved, nor can I provide details of the reason(s) why the case is taking this long.
When the decision is made, or if we require further information from you, we will contact you in writing, for this reason please make sure you notify us promptly if you change your address. Your address can be updated here:

If you require any documents back, these can be requested here: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/about ... documents/. Requesting documents will not negatively impact on the application.
