Re: Postponing biometrics appointment

Hi, I have another question. I have filled the online form and now checking all the details. On the "Trips outside the UK" section, it asks for the time I first arrived in the UK. For this I have mentioned my first ever entry to the UK more than a decade ago. Then there is a list of trips outside ...

Re: Postponing biometrics appointment

Thanks, also do we need to upload all the documents immediately after submitting the application or do we have until the biometric appointment to upload the documents? I remember always using Sopra Steria in the past visa applications but looks like they have changed the firm who handles this so ...

Postponing biometrics appointment

Hello, I will be applying for naturalisation in next few days and will be away for a week for a trip. Do we get an option to choose biometric appointment date or is a date given to the applicants? If it is former, can we postpone the appointment?

Re: Naturalisation application - queries

Thanks, also am I required to submit passport if it's online application? And can I travel outside the country? Moreover, are expired passports required to be scanned? I used that passport to enter the UK. However that was used for my Tier2 visa. 1. You need to scan and upload your passport bio ...

Re: Naturalisation application - queries

Yes I understand that now and hence will be getting it a duplicate. However don't want to do that until application is processed.

Naturalisation necessary before child can be registered British?

I am a bit confused after calling Passport helpline. Both wife and I had a settled status (after I having worked on Tier-2 visa) when our child was born. My understanding is that he is already British from the references below: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1981/61/section/1 https://www.gov ...

Re: Passport for son
