I applied for British Citizenship on the 16th of May. Unfortunately I wasn't aware of the 15 days to enrol biometrics and I am currently on a work trip until the 12th of May (which is annoyingly only 3 working days after the deadline). The work trip couldn't have been postponed unfortunately.
I emailed the biometrics team straight away, as instructed on the enrolment letter. I got the below disheartening reply. Following this I sent them all the information they needed, and I have been waiting for their reply for longer than 10 working days, which is the timeframe they promise to come back to you in.
I wanted to see if anyone else has had a similar situation? I find it strange they said that they don't offer extensions, when I have read that most people get an extra 10 days.
Any help would be very much appreciated!
"Good Afternoon,
Thank you for your email.
I am unable to locate your application without a valid reference number. However we do not offer extensions to enrol bio metrics, it may be possible for you to enrol your bio metrics overseas to do this you would need to provide an overseas address.
I hope this has been of assistance to you.
Kind Regards"
