By the way, my wife now wants to call the council to book her ceremony as I know for a fact that she does not need to wait for the ceremony invitation letter but how about our 5 year old child?

The HO letter states "Your children 's applications have also been successful. They are not required to make an oath and pledge but will be invited to attend the ceremony and be presented with their certificates"

so will the HO post my child's Registration Certificate? or will our child be given that on the ceremony day? also does my wife need to book our child's ceremony too? We are a bit confused so please can you gurus help us? Thanks

At last fee has been taken!!!
I and my wife applied for naturalisation the same way back in August and got our approvals after 3 weeks. Now it took 2.5 months to debit a fee!!!
I wonder how long it will take them to process the application?

All the best

When me and my wife attended our ceremony there were a lot of couples with children getting their certificates together. Give your local council a call and ask if they have certificate for all of you.

Best

Mr choc thnx 4 ur answer . What i just wanted to know is whether or not HO posts registration certificates for minors through the post? Or do they get them on the ceremony day together with their parents? Did HO send ur child her/his reg. Certificate before ceremony or at the ceremony itself? Plz advise as for what i have read in this forum it seems that HO sends Reg. Cert. thru post for minors?

We applied for BC for our daughter after we got our certificates but on our ceremony there were couples with 3 and more children being called for certificates together. I assume they were getting all certificates together but I am not sure. Just call your local council and ask if they have certificates for all of you.

[tier1check]

Does somebody know how does UKBA sends approval document? I mean normal post/speed post/courier?

Normal. Documents came in signed for post though.

Do you mean naturalisation certificate in normal post( not signed for ) and other documents in signed for post?

since i applied through NCS, i don't have any original documents so just naturalisation certificate.
Anybody applied through NCS can you pls clarify?

can somebody pls confirm?
