A quick one:

Should we consider the dated in the court order for becoming a recognized Protected Person/Refugee or the Date of the Court Letter.

Like Court says on the court session held on 1 August 2017 Mr. xxxxxxx.... is approved as protected person, while the notice letter dates 8 August 2017

Should we use the 1 August as reference date for citizenship application or 8 August as you need to state when you become a Protected Person. Please HELP

You should use the date on your NOD. Members can often tell you if you will be approved or not during the hearing but what counts is the date specified on the NOD.

The correct date to use is the NOD date. Members give verbal approval of hearing but what is considered during citizenship calculations is the written date on your NOD.

Hi

The NOD states the date of the court decision is on 1 August while the NoD letterhead date is 8 August. ??

i..e The court approves you as Protected Person on 1 August .... while letterhead date is 8 August?

The date that the NOD letter was written is not relevant. In the body of the letter it should state the day that you were approved as a protected person. Based on what you posted that may be August 1st but I haven’t seen your full letter.
