ktlkaaa, Cold Winter - what does the online tracker say when you use the SXXXX reference in the bio-metric letter rather than the 2XXXXX Case ID reference.

Hopefully letters are received this week!

If it says Decided it's always successful? Or can it still be a reject? I'm I right you would get a rejection letter but still updated to decided.

My guess would be no. Like you say, both rejection and approvals are decisions.

I would guess that's correct. Decided says a decision has been made, not what the decision is.

As with everyone else, I used the number which starts with a 0 on the letter, but has the zero removed on the email I received from UKVI and it correctly updated two days ago. None of the other reference numbers I tried worked.

Congrats ashaqat2 - you appear to be the first to receive a decision letter from the people with updated statuses last week!

Coldwinter · Post by **Coldwinter** » Wed Jul 19, 2017 3:44 pm

a bit concerned now as my status changed to decided on the 11th of july (website said decided on the 9th) but havent received any letters yet. Members who had applications decided at a later date have already received their letters. Called the council and they havent received anything either

I have just updated my post in the March timeline-
Applied on the 16th of March, and noticed this morning that my online status has changed to "decided" updated 6 July 2017. I have noted a few people who applied around the same time as me, so hopefully this info will be helpful to you!

So today I received my approval letter from
The Home Office - it instructed me to contact my local council to book my ceremony which I did straight away! (It turns out that our Naturalisation Certs have been with them since the 7th of July)I managed to get a private ceremony today so very pleased to announce that both myself and my daughter are now British! Happy days

Good luck to all! Once your approval letter arrives things can happen very quickly indeed!

Did you apply yourself or through a NCS? I applied through a different NCS to where I live and had no idea that my certificate would go to my local council hence I did not think to check with them, I simply assumed it would be sent to the council where I made my application

Coldwinter · Post by **Coldwinter** » Wed Jul 19, 2017 6:48 pm

I applied at a different ncs but have checked with my local council. I am aware that the certificate goes to the local council.

Cold Winter - got a decided status 1 day after you - still waiting for letter as well. Hopefully it comes by this week for both of us!

Mate might be worth ringing your council tommorrow to see if thy have recieved anything. Looks like in most cases the council is recieving the letter before the applicant.

ktlkaaa · Post by **ktlkaaa** » Wed Jul 19, 2017 7:20 pm

Cold winter relax - my status updated same date as you. We are not even close yet to 10 working days being up. If you go through March timelines thread you can see a number of cases where letter arrived close to the 2 week mark. I'm trying to not worry until it is actually Tuesday next week

ninaphilbrick · Post by **ninaphilbrick** » Wed Jul 19, 2017 7:55 pm

My last update was also 25 May. Does anyone know how often they're updated or possibly the date of the next update? I am also "awaiting decision."
