I have a question, guys.
I have just received an HMRC letter, informing me that I owe them some £69.80 in underpaid tax. Is it gonna affect my naturalization application?? I applied on 14th February and still waiting for approval.
Assuming you're on PAYE, it should not. I owe them about £600 when I phone in to ask more details, I was told, I dont need to do anything as my tax code will be automatically adjusted for next year - this happened Dec 14. I have got letter from HMRC in March informing me of my tax code for 15-16. Basically, they have reduced my free allowance to cover this underpayment. If you are too worried, call them up but note that you cant pay online or on the phone. It is long winded process you have to follow.

Thanks, Rakeysh brother.
Yeah, you're cent per cent right. That's what I've concluded after googling it that it's gonna be adjusted in my current year's tax code.
Thanks again for your quick response, brother.

It won't effect your application but why not pay it :)
you can either update HMRC saying no tax is due for that period or just pay it.

According to John Vine's report, the average processing time for naturalization application was 50 days. 48 days have passed since I applied. Hope for the best, insha Allah.
Rakeysh & Tulip are waiting eagerly for the last 32 days. It's all about wait!
