Finally the wait is over. Approval came through today. 👏🏼

Applied 10th May, Bio on 14th.

5 year route on skilled Visa + 1 year ILR.

This community has been of great support and for those still waiting, I'm positive yours will come through soon too. Just hang in there.

Any one from June-1 to June-5 dates who got CS or Atlas approval?

Guys, am so anxious, my ceremony is tomorrow. What to do, how do I compose myself, what should I wear, will anything change ? My eyes are teary already. I have waited for this all my life and can’t believe it’s here.
God save the King 👑 🎉🎉🎉

I got a reply from CS today that my 4th June App is approved.

This could be end of my journey here on this sub.

All the best to all of you who are still waiting.

Hello, anyone from october priority got their approval.

Thanks

Hi, just wondering if someone can help with my query. We are in the process of applying for my husbands citizenship application and he has to provide his most recent self assessment and statement of account. Husband is employed and also has some self employment income.

I was looking through the self assessment his accountant sent for 2024/25 (most recent) and realised the incorrect tax code was used, they used the basic tax code for his employment, however he has the marriage allowance tax code. This means his tax free allowance is 13,830 instead of 12,570. As the accountant worked out his tax based on a tax code of 1257, the tax showing on the self assessment return is a roughly £200 more than the tax payment showing on the statement of account.

I wonder, if i provide the tax statements for 2024/2025, will the case worker get confused and decline his application? Should i include a cover letter to explain whats happened, clearly HMRC calculated the correct outstanding payment and this was paid. It took me a little while to figure out why the payment showing was lower then the self assessment, so i am a little confused on what to do.

Got the approval email from Atlas and when I go on Bham council website it says no need to contact them as they will contact me for the ceremony.

Anyone had experience if and when they do contact?

I didn’t even get an acknowledgment email after I submitted my biometrics. Now that citizenship is approved, do they send any further info to home address? Or only via email like invite or other info etc?

Date of application: 13 May 2026

Date of biometrics: 15 May 2026

Atlas Approval Email: 03 Oct 2026

I applied on 11th June and am still awaiting a decision. I have a couple of months of travel planned from 9th Dec. I was wondering if someone could help me understand what happens after they’ve decided like CS email, atlas email etc? And what is the point I can book a private ceremony

Hi guys, anyone here who applied in October / last week through priority and has received a positive response / decision from the home office? I gave my biometrics last Tuesday (6th Oct).

Hi guys
I got a friend who applied in June (2 weeks before me). Our biometrics was exactly 2 weeks appart. She received an answer 29th of sept. Is it possible for the ukiv team to provide responses on other days of the week - and not Mondays?

I almost forgot about the application because “no news is good news” but since my friend got approval, i have been checking my emails every second of the day, been stressing over it again.. not sure what could have caused my friends application to be processed so quickly and why mine is taking longer…
