Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

How do they send out passports-just by normal mail it seems rather than sign for etc Generally by DX Courier, dropped through the letterbox without signature, unless you live in high risk areas where they require a signature. Thanks, that will be a problem as I live in an apartment block and if the...

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

I feel your pain and anxiety. You just should be patient until after 6 months. Then you may ask questions about the delay. If you must know, I am celebrating the 5th month anniversary of my application today and still “awaiting a decision”!

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

Yes, you will keep ALL your original documents except the Life in the UK Test Letter. That seems to be the only advantage it has over other methods. Good luck!

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Pro

It is an irony that the more the HO increases the fees, the longer it takes them to process the applications. There seems to be no value for money. More money, less efficiency :?:
