First British Passport after Naturalisation

Post by kankerot » Thu May 04, 2023 5:15 pm

My wife is a British citizen she gained her citizenship in 2016 if I recall correctly - she has her certificate of naturalisation, we didnt get her a British Passport as she continued to use her US Passport (she is a dual US/UK citizen)

Now reading up on the application for a British passport - is it correct that we will need to send in her US passport and her naturalisation certificate as well as attend an interview?

Yes.

Not necessarily. It is quite randon who are asked to attend interviews. Not many are.

British Citizen Travelling on US Passport

Post by kankerot » Wed May 31, 2023 11:43 am

Booked tickets to travel to USA in August - wife is a dual US and UK citizen but she has her US passport but not applied for UK passport - should we apply for UK passport before we go or after we return?

I understand that you need to post her US passport to the passport office as part of the process?
