The spouse is french
She is exercising her treaty right in the uk and has never been to Ireland
She does not have any kids but still married.
Do you know what the process is in the uk

I am asking on behalf of my friend She is married to a EEA national and has 5 years residence expiring in 2019. She has been in the UK legally for over 5 years. She has been married for over 3 years. Is she entitled to apply for permanent residence before the expiry of the 5 years residence permit ?...

Even if i was not born in the UK? I can order one?

Hi, I am planning to get married in Cyprus. I am a naturalised british citizen and my fiancee is an EU citizen, One of the requirements is a birth certificate but i do not have my birth certificate, would my naturalisation certificate suffice in lieu of a birth certificate? thanks Forgive if i am us...

I wouldnt worry too much if i were you.. i had a administrative caution and still paying money to the job centre and i forgot to disclose it and it didnt affect my application. I am now british. They were threeother people on here with the same who got their citizenship approved. i think one of them...

I got my approval after 3 months. I was a refugee - but i did sent a cover letter i drafted whilst at the NCS appointment stipulating how i shouldnt be penalise for illegal entry as I made an asylum claim the same day of entry . I sent all supporting documents over the period of every leave I was gr...

i agree with you, i had a chat with the refugee council and they told me it should be fine once you have become british. I also encountered a few people who have gone back to their home countries a few times as well. I think the members here are just super cautious which is good but i dont think the...

thanks for your help.
i will review those links.

Thanks guys also the letter granting citizenship confirmed that i lost refugee status upon becoming british citizen i hadnt obtain refugee status by deception my understanding is you are free to go anywhere with a british passport. it doesnt carry a remark such as not allowed to travel to a certain ...

I know this might be a silly question but are there any implications on going back to country of origin after attaining citizenship through refugee route?
Or once have a british passport, it doesnt matter anymore? There would be no implications coming back into the UK?

Thanks

Hi Smonjang, thanks and I am sure you would get your approval too.

I still have outstanding amount due to DWP which i am making minimal payments.

As long as one has paid or making payment, it should be fine.

Thsnks for the update
I also resolved mine by sending an email to ukvi in which the case worker emailed me to confirm that hmpo was notified
I received my passport yesterday
Thanks again for sharing

You will need the original certificate as the NCS need to certify it.

I did my application and hasnt kept a track of my trips abroad but i looked into my old entry and exits stamps in the various countries and made high level assumptions. Mine was not accurate as there are instances where I travelled into one country and took train into another and lost track of my du...

I think yours has taken definitely the longest time I have seen, It used to take long when the scheme was first rolled out but it has now been embedded and shouldnt take that long. Now i feel like a very impatient person contacting UKVI about mine which i attended my ceremony only on 20th. Yours def...

I sent an email this morning to UKVI and also requested the examiner ring UKVI for confirmation. How long ago did you attend your ceremony?

I have rang passport office and ask them to kindly request from the relevant department responsible for updating ceremony attedance. All they keep saying is we need confirmation from the UKVI that you have attended ceremony. I have explained to them that work commitments mean i need to travel and al...

I am in the same situation. did you get yours sorted? council confirmed they sent attendance to the Home Office via email. but passport office havent received confirmation.

I have the same issue here. I rang passport office and they have informed me that they are aware of my approval and the ceremony is also confirmed. However, they cant see anywhere on their system that I have attended the ceremony. therefore, they need UKVI to confirm my attendance. I am assuming the...

I applied in April and received my approval and attended ceremony already. Hopefully your approval is on the way. My guess would be in the next or so. Just hang on a bit and sort it all out before jetting off.
Good luck

Any idea on what happens with the travel document after ceremony? Do i need to send it to the Home Office?

I have BRP and also a refugee travel document issued by the home office. do i need to send the travel document back after ceremony or just the BRP?
