Gloucestershire County Council DOES allow you to apply for naturalisation and your first British passport simultaneously via the National Document Return Service. You will be able to keep your passport and original documents during the course of the application. The link on the council website expla...

I understand. As an EEA national you would have been lawfully present in the UK from 2008 to 2012 even if you were not resident here. Maybe reading through the guidance on the free movement rights of EEA nationals might allay your naturalisation concerns. I think that Scenario 2 on page 27 (Sabine) ...

Hello my aquatic friend! There is this thread regarding WRS where EEA-nationals seem to have had no issues with naturalisation despite not having registered on the scheme. Also, there is another thread with an EEA-family member who had an unsuccessful naturalisation application due to failing the go...

With all due respect do we have any case reported here where the fee was deducted and the Naturalisation application was refused. I searched but didn't find any. I haven't found any cases like you mention but, if you look at this London council's webpage , they state that: The passport application ...

JCAP is online application + NDRS appointment at any council, right? Yes. For the naturalisation I am planning to use 2 referees. One - person over 25 with British passport. Two - Polish passport holder, qualified accountant. I assume that the JCAP service will allow me to use exactly those 2 refer...

Ok. Makes sense. When I will be eligible to apply with my ILR granted on 10th May 2018?

As your spouse is not British, you need to have held ILR for at least 12 months before applying for naturalisation. So the earliest you will be able to apply is 10th May 2019.

Note that if you have a parent who is already British, you may be entitled to register as British instead of taking the naturalisation path. This is usually easier (and I think cheaper). OP likely over 18 if they were 3 in 2002 when he came to the UK. True ...but OP could have a British father . In...

Hi Digit123, What was your status between 2002 and 2010? Were you illegal? If you had a legal immigration status during this period then, since you have held ILR for more than twelve months and have resided in the UK for more than five years, you CAN apply for naturalisation under Section 6(1) . How...

Hi mikey81, Note the following when it comes to the passport application as part of a JCAP process... Applications are made using the standard British Passport application form. These are available from the Post Office or at your council's Register Office. When you fill in the form, please make sure...

Why you want to keep it? Just do as informed in your ceremony invitation letter.

They may need to have the BRP to hand if they have a young child who is not yet British. Luckily, since they went via the EEA-route, they have the option of keeping their biometric data without facing a £1000 fine.

See Guide MN1 referred to above.

You can put the year. They will have the details anyway. Thank you. When I click Yes the next page ask Name in which you made the application. Just to clarify, do I need to put my name or the name of the application category like Tier 1 ILR. You need to put YOUR name at the time of the application....

if your absences are up to 450 days we would expect you to have been resident in the UK for the last 4 years. Does this mean if the application date is today, the applicant should be physically resident (and present) in UK for the last four years (May2014 - May2018), in that case applicant would au...

Hi areczkowski24,

To your second question: Three (3) photos per applicant if you are doing a joint citizenship and passport application - british-citizenship/photographs-require ... 46875.html. Not sure if one or two for the app by itself.

Renzo,

Yes the passport fee just comes out as part of the process. Doesn't indicate success/failure. But you will get it refunded if your naturalisation application is not successful.

Good luck to you too!

@ areczkowski24

You only need the marriage certificate if you are applying under the 3-year rule if married to a British Citizen. Otherwise not required.

...or if your spouse is a non-EEA national.

Thanks alterhase58.

Hi areczkowski24, You need to go to the appointment with the following items: Completed application form and proof of payment details Passport-sized photos Signed referee statements Document from the Home Office confirming Permanent Residence Status (this should have been held for at least 12 months...

Thanks for your reply. But I'm wondering if on checklist thay don't asking for English knowledge certificate !you think council officer on my appointment will take copy as well?

I applied online and then used the JCAP service to provide all documents. The citizenship fee payment was made online when I applied on 12/3 . The passport fee was charged on my card on 9/4 . I assumed they would only take the payment for the passport at the very end, after approving my citizenship...

This is a common text message. It is unlikely that they will contact you for more information or an interview. Go about your business (including the planned trip) as normal. If (big IF) HMPO were to contact you, they would give you a couple weeks to provide the required information or arrange an int...
