dear noajthan Thanks for the help, When i applied for my first British pass after 5b months, HMPO insisted to cancel my foreign passport, but i couldn't at the time, because the embassy said to cancel a passport you must have valid British passport with a different name. After i received my BP, I ha...
Dear noajthan I have a question is hmpo included maiden name on the observation page of you wife's passport? No HMPO did not agree to do that at the time (ie during initial confusion & lack of published guidance on the new identity policy); however, more recently, a few other members have managed t...

charimito HMPO will first ask you to send to them a request letter of course with your signature . When they receive your withdrawn formal letter probably you should have your documents back within 2 weeks time. I sent mine with next day delivery , i received my documents 10 days after that letter....
Dear imoustache If you read the past couple of page here you will get your answer. I believe after Hellonewhere get here passport with the married name you may need to provide evidence why cant you get your Brazilian passport change to married name, by providing a letter from your embassy that you c...

Dear Sanu84 One tips for you that you still did not apply for Naturalisation!!! apply for Home Office travel document before applying for citizenship.And send your Deed poll or marriage certificate to them as proof of changing name. https://www.gov.uk/apply-home-office-travel-document/overview If yo...
I would definitely update you Antsmall Dear Nolada It depends !! for example for a refugee who carries UK travel document which is blue colour i could say they could change their name with deedpoll or by marriage. However for people like us who holding another foreign passport they would want to see...
To answer your question short yes! my solicitor told the examiner manager the difficulties of name change & surrounding Foreign citizenship in my case, The manager then told her that we need to provide HMPO with official certified documents to back up my case. They also asked if i could ask the Emba...
Dear antsmall an other members my Solicitor had contacted the passport office and they first transferred her to the examiner after when my solicitor wasn't still satisfied than the examiner told to my solicitor the Manger would contact my solicitor!After 2 days their manager called and here is what ...
Dear Antsmall Thank you for all your info May i ask if you have spoken about the note to HMPO and if yes what they respond to you ! However when i told my solicitor about the note before, she said that is not the case as your name change never erases from the system, and anytime you renew your passp...
First of all Thanks to everyone here keeping in touch and updating :) As you all had the same situation about your passport application and never received any letter from HMPO explaining their reason, i have came to the conclusion that it could be a major problem for them to actually write to us as ...
Dear Charimito i having a similar problem, i have hired a solicitor to deal with the situation, HMPO dose not explain anything on the letter and they request a call back only thats odd, for that reason i had to get a solicitor, she called them and explained my case,however they still didnt send a le...
