I think I heard David Cameron suggest that in one of the TV debates. If true - this would h...

When is the earliest I can get references for naturalisation in the application form? If i get them 3 months before i apply, for example, would that be acceptable? Don't think there's a limit so long as it's within reason. Mine was signed 2 months in advance and I had no issues. They didn't even ca...

@ kidney....i mean certificate. @ navanas... questions are very simple. whatever you wrote in the form , they will ask you that. the only extra thing they asked was banks details, loan and mortgage. Hello Eskar, What do you mean by "naturalisation papers"? Did you mean your Letters of approval and ...

I booked interview, first available date was this weekend so booked for saturday. Any advice from people who already went through in...

Hi Eskar and others who have applied for the passport , any updates from your side ?? mine is still awaiting.. Nothing from me.

Hello, Hope someone can help me with filling the above 3 sections in Form AN. 1.1 -- Previous immigration and Nationality Directorate or Border and Immigration Agency or UK Border Agency reference numbers. [AS] Would this be the same as a UK**** Number on the ILR stamp on my passport or this is the...

I think I may have wasted £720 pounds. I have applied for naturalisation. 4.5 years ago, I got a speeding fine 66mph in a 50 zone - but was on a foreign license so the fine was issued by a court (£60) via post. This is my only conviction ever, however it was not a "fixed penalty", as I had a fore...
