Naturalisation and Passport Pilot Scheme

[shazzy1985]

I am going to apply for naturalisation and passport next week. Will appreciate your help on the following:

1. I am using NCS. What should I write about submission of the original BRP

2. I travel frequently and have more than 100 trips in last 5 years. Can I use a supplementary sheet rather than the format in the form to calculate my outside UK days?

3. For the passport application, it asks how many uncancelled passports are being submitted. I obviously have 1 uncancelled non-UK passport but I was wondering if this needs to be submitted with NCS?

Someone has been Updating the spreadsheet and has completely deleted my info.

I have updated the spreadsheet with my details again. It's looking promising that April and May are beginning to be approved

Applied for Naturalisation and passport at the same time via Manchester NCS on 04/08/16.

Fairly boring application as I've been here since 2006 and went the Fiancee visa -> limited leave to remain -> ILR route and have had ILR for 6 years, married to a British citizen, etc. *crosses fingers*

Hi, just to want to cross check if any one can supply contact details to cross check my childs MN(1) application. As explained above I did applied it through NCS on 19/05 and the home office received it next day. I am not expecting this process to be fast tracked but I have not received acknowledgement till date and even the payment is not taken.

Hi
I am planning to apply both Naturalization and passport at the same time.
Is it possible to apply MYSELF for both Naturalization and passport at the same time because I am not going through NCS (Nationality checking services). Can anyone help me please.

You can't use JCAP's service by your own, You need to go via NCS only.

Quick question guys.

I am applying for naturalisation and passport together via ncs @manchester on Wednesday.

I am not sure which passport application do I need to use. I have applied for passport online and paid the fees is that OK. Or should I HV got the passport application form from post office and use it? Any one knowledgeable on the subject please reply.

You need to get passport form from Post office and take it along with you when going to NCS. Online application cannot be done for Joint Passport & Nationality application.

Hi,

Can anyone please tell me whats the benefit of Naturalisation and passport application together? I've just spoken to one of the borough of london and she said that i have to fill out passport application form as well. I am not qualified for passport application until my naturalisation is being accepted, isn't it? so i can't see any point of applying them together...Can anyone clear me about it please.

It is a scheme that HO has started quite a few months ago. If you applying using the joint scheme, you don't need to attend a passport interview and you also get your passport soon after your ceremony.

If naturalisation is refused, you obviously won't get the passport.

Yes, you have to complete the form. Leave that section blank.

One more thing.
Do I have to include my Life in the UK test pass certificate letter with AN application form, in requirement it says so. My Life in the UK test certificate has been used already when applied for ILR.

Yes you need to submit it and HO keep it.

[atikur]

You didn't get what i saID..Life in the UK is kept by Home Office when I applied for ILR.

They should have given it back to you as they know it is required for BC. Most ILR applicants get it back, I certainly did.

Tick you met the requirement for ILR then and didn't receive it back. If HO needs more information, they will write to you.

Hi All,

This forum has been incredibly helpful in this long journey to naturalization and couldn't be more excited on my final step, hope everything goes smoothly! I'll be making my joint Naturalisation and Passport application at NCS Barking and Dagenham council on 2nd December, I have some questions which most likely are answered but this is a long thread, it's hard to find the specific answers, so please bear with me for that.

1. Do I not need any counter signatory to sign my application and photograph for the section 10 of Passport form? as this is a combined application?

2. How many total photographs I need? and how many of them need to have my name and date of birth on the back of them?

3. Fees for the Naturalisation will be deducted from the info in Payment slip, what about the passport fees, is it taken from that also? else how do I need to pay that fees?
