Re: Passport refused - uncancelled passport in maiden name

I eventually got my passport and guess what it was misspelled :evil: I ended up registering my marriage in Poland, getting Polish passport in my married name and then getting British passport. Now I have to resend everything because of HMPO inability to read application form and transferring details...

Re: June 2015 Naturalization Application TIMELINE ONLY

kamran7 that is their standard response so I wish I didn't bother contacting them at all. Lack of consistency and self-conflicting informations are being provided by customer care staff. As a result of their "advice" my marriage certificate is now officially lost. I know it is difficult but email th...

British citizen or not

Dear All The case isn't mine but of a close family member.

In Oct 2006 their daughter was born. And there is m...

Re: application refused - please help!

I don't think that studying and working will have such an impact on the application. I did my uni degree while working and registered with WRS as a worker. It could be in my case that didn't mattered as I had PR while studying. There must be something else. I would suggest Ilona to talk to immigrati...
