From my cursory reading of the legislation, a really bad idea. A general rule of British nationality law is that there is a paper trail to prove citizenship (eg, birth certificate and proof of parents Settled Status or ILR BRP, registration or naturalisation certificate, etc). These beneficiary chi...

Did anyone actually seen how that Nationality Status confirmation certificate/letter looks like? I mean is it a proper "certificate" like the ones you get when you're naturalised or registered? Or is it a normal letter written on a toilet paper like the ones you get when you get as a confirmation of...

the registration under WRS is one of requirements to prove you legally worked (exercised EU treaty rights) in UK. Without it HO won't consider you as settled.

Hi Coming back to that article in the Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/jun/29/uk-citizenship-children-eastern-european-migrants-error I'd like to know if I will send a SAR request and they will send me a photocopy of that WRS registration certificate and card would that be sufficien...

Will help forum members if you can share how.

Sorry for the long reply. I've sent email to AppointmentExceptions@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk and they forwarded it to NationalityBiometrics@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk and it was sorted in around 3 weeks time

I think the most important news is that the refusal rate jumped from 6% in previous quarter to 15% in this one. Not good news.

I only got a reply that my message has been scanned by Government antivirus.

Guys can you please help me? I just got a call from Homeoffice saying basically the same - that i should send an email to nationalitybiometrics@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk He's saying that they didn't get any of my emails (sent couple of them using different emails) He said that after an email to that add...

So guys? Any suggestions?

Should be fine with this.

Will let you know after 8th june - that's my test date

It was ok - it didn't matter for the people from learning center. Will see if for home office it won't matter as well

Hi It's just a matter of one letter. I have misspelled name. On the letter it's "i" instead of "a". All other is ok. I have already sent email informing them about it to NationalityBiometrics@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk but didn't get any confirmation or anything. Today I called 03001232253 and spoke with...

In Booklet (June 2015) on page 5 you read: "You must have been physically present in UK on the day 5 years before application is received by Home Office" What do you think the word "received" means by Home Office? Is it the date they got it from Post Office or is it the day of acknowledgement (date ...

I have just done a web search on the official name with the funny character. As an alternative, it is listing the town as WROCLAW as the symbol seems to closely resemble an L. I know that this is the official name. The thing is that they check your passport with what they have in their system. In m...

On the other hand it doesn't make sense what the guy from call centre suggested - If was born in China , and my birth town would consist only out of chinese symbols then would I have to leave the whole field blank?
I will try to put it as WROCLAW instead of WROCŁAW

I called the call centre and they said that instead the foreign letter I should put in "space".
So instead of WROCłAW i need to put WROC AW. Will that be enough - I don't know.

I want to register to take the test but unfortunately my home town has foreign letter in it which does not exists in English alphabet. If I put the foreign letter it says that there is invalid letter and I can't finish the registration process without changing it to English letter. On the website th...

What about registration of my 2nd son? Is he registered? If yes where can I get his registration number?

My situation looks like that: Me and my wife came from Poland to UK in 09.2007 We both are working continuously from 11.2007. 1st son (Olaf) born in 04.2011 in UK (registered in 05.2015) 2nd son (Adam) born in 11.2014 in UK (did not register but applied straight for British passport - got it in 02.2...
