Hi
Today I received my passport and along with a home office letter asking for my original documents again. Please see below about letter.

I refer your application for British citizenship.Before we can proceed further please send
-All of the following original documents originally supplied to national checking service in support of your nationality application.
These documents are required in order to demonstrate to the secretary of state that you satisfy the requirements for naturalisation ,specifically that you meet the residence requirements for naturalisation.
They were asked me for my original passports in last month and I have posted them and today they send my passport and letter asking for documents.
-Do I need to send my passport again
-I don't have any gaps in my immigration and I applied on 5yrs tier1+1yr ILR
-No criminal record or points
I am very upset and worried about this. That would be really helpful If any one give an advise or idea about my issue.
Thank you

Did you make a return Request fo ur passport if not, try to contact ur casewoker and ask for explaination before anything else because I personally think that is an error letter

Hi foufou
Happy to see your reply, Thank you.

To lead123. I have read your post in awe. There is nothing you can do other than post all your original documents that you showed at the n.c.s. This beats the purpose of the n.c.s other than a loss of more money. Am in the same shoes. They asked for my travel documents and I send them a month today and I have heard nothing since. Keep the faith I hope after you send your docs you will get your approval. And yes it is worrying after seeing so many people in similar circumstances receiving their approvals though every case is different. I been waiting since July 4th by the way. Good kuck

Hi mykarl123

Thank you for your post. I have posted my documents and looking forward to hear from them.
