Naturalisation approval received and some queries

Post by currydixon » Tue Apr 15, 2014 7:55 am

Hello All

I have received my Naturalisation acknowledgement letter yesterday. I have following queries, Could any one please help me?

1. I am travelling China in end of May and returning back on 1st week of June. Considering my approval dated 8 April and it will be valid for 3 month, Can i book my British nationality ceromany in 2nd week of June? My understanding is it is only approval so i am not fully british citizen yet, Can i still travel on my Indian passport?

Eligibility criteria: HSMP + Tier 1 + 1yr ILR
Method of application: NCS
Council name if NCS used: Reading
Date of application: 24/02/2014
Acknowledgement letter dated: 08/04/2014
Acknowledgement letter received: 14/04/2014

Thanks

Hello Guru

I have gone through some post here and my understanding is I can travel out side UK after my British citizen ship ceromany, Can any one please confirm?

My oath ceromany is on 13 May 2014, and i am travelling to CHina & Korea on 24 May 2014. I have 2 option...

1. Go for oath on 13 May and travel with Indian passport/ILR to China/Korea, comeback in 10 days then apply for passport.
2. Travel without going for oath and book an oath ceromany after coming back from China.

Can you please advise?

I have traveled several times since my citizenship ceremony on my old passport. I have yet to receive my British passport.
I would attend the ceremony and apply for British passport when you come back.
I am sometimes wrong.

Hello Milan

Thanks. When you travel, Do you carry Citizen certificate with you?
Or You pretend to be Indian passport + ILR holder in all case. Please confirm?

Thanks

I carried certificate of naturalization with me as well as my ILR. I did not need to show the certificate upon entry but I suggest you carry it anyways. Have a read at this post:
