Ceremony Question, HELP!!!!

[morocco2010]

Hi,

I have applied for my naturalization on 14/02/2012 through NCS Birmingham.

I am spouse of a British citizen and made my application as I have been here for over 3 years.

I have received acknowledgement on 25/02/2012 and I am still waiting on their comeback

My issue is I want to travel to Morocco in August but I am worried if I travel and they send me a letter in order to attend the ceremony I would need to fly back.

If I don't receive any response by the end of the July shall I book my flight?

If I happen to receive the letter whilst in Morocco, could you arrange to attend the ceremony after you come back or is their a time restriction.

Please respond as I am desperate.

Thanks

The letter asks you to contact the council within 21 days in order to book a ceremony within 90 days. In practice even if you contact the council after 21 days, you should be fine so no reason to worry (unless your trip is for 2-3 months).

The trip is for 2 months in August 2012, Would you recommend to travel once we receive the letter?

The UK border agency are taking a considerable amount of time to respond, I appreciate your quick response.

I would not wait for the HO. Just get someone to go over your post. It is quite easy to spot the HO letter. You can them book a ceremony over the phone/email for your return.

Hopefully you will hear from the HO before August.
