Hi guys
I applied in July
I used my biometric resident to check my status it says decided , but when I use my case Id it's still showing awaiting decision any help?? any suggestions? I am starting to lose my control 8) :) :( :!: :?:
You Application is for Naturalisation ? Am i right ?

what's your Timeline ?
yeh application for naturalisation
applied in July, done my biometric on the 18th of July ,application online since 11th of July , any Idea? hope it's really decided I would be grateful
In my Opinion it's the BRP one not the Naturalisation Application Decision, But maybe i'm wrong, it will be good if any Moderator put some light on it...

You cannot use your ILR BRP card to check your citizenship application status. Using your ILR BRP card will simply confirm that your ILR has been decided!!

They removed the reference to date - I'm guessing they were tired of phonecalls and emails saying they haven't done anything for months.

Do you guys know if the tracking number is the JCAP Barcode number given by NCS during Naturalisation and Passport joint application, or a reference number received in the acknowledgment email / post letter?

Thanks in advance and my apologies if duplicating the question as I was not able to find a clear answer. All the best to anyone waiting for an answer.
Tracking No is always generated when the caseworker from home office starts looking into case.
Council Is just there to validate and send the document across to HO.
You should get either a mail or post regarding the case Id.
Thank you very much mr navinw. Best regards.

When I check the status using the case reference number it says "awaiting decision". However, when I check using BRP number it says "Decided". Can some guys, who have status as "awaiting decision" check using the BRP number and see what happens. Is there a bug in the online checking system?

Its not a bug.
Every application has its own no to track.

The status showing DECIDED is of your ILR application-which is already been decided....and has been delivered to you.

So don't mix two things....
Your BC application will have unique case ref no, from which you can track your application status.

Hope this Clears your thought....

Date of application - 09.05.2017. Date of acknowledgement - 20.05.2017. Still "awaiting a decision". No further requests, no letters, no emails - complete radio silence. Anyone else with similar application dates still waiting?

What about Biometrics? Surely it must have been done. It was thru NCS I assume -submission of application I mean.

I may be wrong but I have observed some people with NARIC certification applications getting slightly delayed. Also many times the payment by Credit Card is declined. Is it safe to say that go for Cheque payment for fees and use Triinity English Test Qualification instead? No such rule but just an observation based on some cases.

You may be right....not sure.
even i supplied the NARIC certificate.....
But NARIC has already confirmed the degree and took their own time to certify. So not sure HO doing the same thing to re-confirm........
& i paid thru the debit card....which is straightway payment...

Hi,

I haven’t received decision letter even though status changed to decided on 11th Oct . I called UKVI after 10 days and they advised it was despatched on 18th Oct and wait another 10 days
I called council and they have my details but still need decision letter . It’s most likely that I will miss 21 days deadline of booking ceremony as I haven’t received decision letter . I called Ukvi again and they asked me to mail another mail address which has sla of 20 working days . What are my options ? Will council accept me for ceremony without the decision letter ? Thanks

Hi guys, I am wondering if this online tracking service is applicable for priority postal Tier 2 (General) extension in-country application.

I submitted online on October 16th 2017 and took biometric on the same day. Also, all documents have been received by Home Office on October 18th.

However, my status has been still awaiting a decision since October 16th although the decision should have been made within 10 working days.

I can track my status only by IHS number and other numbers are not recognised. So, I started doubting if this service is not really accurate for priority postal, or otherwise my application may be regarded as complicated case.

I went through the check-in service on the 28/06/2017 and received acknowledgement on the 06/07/2017 until now it's still on status "Awaiting a decision - Your application has been considered and is awaiting a decision. The order of the status is Open, Awaiting a decision and Decided."

This had the last updated date on the 5/07/2017 now it's no longer there.

I am travelling on the 16/12/2017 I don't want to miss the letter for ceremony, does anyone know if this will come back before the date on the 16th?

Has anyone applied for naturalization after the 28/06/2017 and received their ceremony letter?
