Thanks Todmatt

Hey Amazonian Thank you for your reply. Appreciate it. Are you sure the online statements are acceptable? In the home office guidance it says that if the bank statements aren't original, they must be stamped. I even went to HSBC bank but they said we don't stamp the bank statements. Secondly i had o...

I only sent my current Pakistani passport. Got my British passport in Feb 2021. I know many more people who only sent the current passport and no issues. Dear Cullinan, Thanks a lot for getting back to me. I will also send my Current Passport then. The other thing i am really confused about is my a...

Dear Cullinan,

As per your message above, are we okay to send the current passport only or do we also have to send the expired passports as well? Did you only send your current passport for British Passport application?

Dear CR001,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Just to clarify, i am okay to put the new address on the passport application without updating the Home Office right?

Dear Everyone, I will be making my passport application in 3 week times after attending my citizenship ceremony. The ceremony will be in person so i will get the naturalisation certificate straightaway. I applied for naturalisation back in November 2020, and since then i have moved address. I didn't...

Hello. Anybody else having a really bad experience with Redbridge Council? Their citizenship ceremony service is just ridiculous. Its been almost 3 weeks since i emailed them my home office ceremony invitation letter along with my contact details. Nobody has got back to me. The annoying thing is tha...

Did anybody over here had a recent ceremony experience with the Redbridge Council? I received my invitation letter on 26th April and i called Redbridge council to book the ceremony but they said they don;t do booking over the phone. They need an email containing a copy of the invitation letter and o...

I think it might be a SJPN. What happens in this case?

Initially i thought of not declaring it but today before submitting the application i was having second thoughts. I was thinking of mentioning this incident on the 'other information' section

Hi Cullinan, Thank you for your reply. It was £100 as far as i remember. As the oyster card wasn't touched in the inspector took my details and i received a letter few days later in the post about the incident and asking to plead guilty and pay a fine of £100. I pleaded guilty and paid the £100 fine...

Dear Members, Can you please help me with an urgent query regarding my naturalisation application which i am planning to submit today. In December 2014 or January 2015, while travelling on London Underground, i was fined by a ticket inspector for not having a valid oyster card. I received a £100 fin...

Thanks a lot Aman. So happy to hear this I don't have any dependants so will definitely vary my application and go for super priority service within the 28 days if they haven't still decided my application.

Just for my peace of mind, can any other moderator please confirm what Aman said.

Hello Gurus, I was wondering if you guys could help me clarify a couple of things. I have tried my best to search for the answer in this forum in order to avoid duplicating this question but I couldn’t find anything related to my situation. Apologies in advance if this has been answered here before....

Hello Everyone, I need some advice from you guys regarding my scenario. I have been in the UK for seven years. I am currently on the entrepreneur visa and it is due for extension in August 2017.
