In case this helps anyone with a similar timeline - I got my approval letter via email on the 8th of January and yesterday I received my invitation letter (dated 17th of March). I've managed to book a ceremony for 01/06 as that was the soonest available slot - Brighton and Hove council

Hello - a quick question that I wasn't sure where to ask so I'm just using my old thread. I sent my application already a few months back and i'm waiting for the decision. It occurred to me that some people get their decision by post, and some by email - can I ask why that is? Should I be expecting ...
Bio page is enough. Greyscale or colour does not matter as long file size is less than 6MB. Thank you, very helpful - thanks to all the quick responses here I have now scanned and uploaded all documents that were on my checklist without any issues! Last (I hope so :D ) question. My appointment is c...
Sorry - me again with another (potentially obvious) question, but I wanted to double check. I've currently scanned in greyscale my passport main page and the cover. Do I need to scan the whole passport with every page from start to end , or is the main bit enough? Also, seen some mixed messages arou...
I see - 'other' is under my mandatory categories and the description is about lawfully being in the UK etc so it threw me off a bit. I will upload there - as always thanks for the quick response!
Me again! Very quick question on UKVCAS categories. Where am I supposed to upload the two reference documents? My mandatory categories on the UKVCAS website were for the passport photo & the 5 year lawful residency proof. The rest appear as below as 'Optional' categories, but there isn't a clear one...
Your passport and settled status reference is enough to prove that. There is a question in the online form where you have to declare all previous UK immigration applications. Did you not provide a reference number there? You can always add a cover letter and mention that again and upload before you...
I am guessing here a bit, but the quote you are showing leads me to believe this is directed at people applying for Settled Status, which is not run by UKVCAS. Because it mentions the Settled Status website. I think you have submitted everything for naturalisation via UKVCAS, including your settled...
Hi - been a while since I posted this. I have since then completed the form and paid and am now in the process of waiting for my UKVCAS appointment in November and have to scan and upload my documents online before then. I now have a big confusion over two of the items on my checklist - Evidence tha...
Thank you for all the info and replying so fast! This is hugely helpful and makes me feel more at east about it all :) Put an estimate but try to be as accurate as possible as HO do check. Ahh ok - this will be the biggest problem, I don't even know how to begin to find it. It could be any day in a ...
Hi all! I’ve been collating all my questions to post in a single topic for the online application for naturalisation i'm in the middle of filling in, and I’m hoping someone can help me get a bit more clarity on them. Apologies if these are repeated elsewhere, I tried to look before I posted this. So...
1) in what order should I be entering my previous employment history and absences from the UK? I can't find any information in the guidance on whether it should be entered from oldest to newest, or most recent to oldest. Does it even matter? I want to make sure it's correct. Personally I would alwa...
Hi. I'm new to the forum so hopefully this is the correct place to ask! I tried to search existing topics for what I need help with but couldn't find the correct stuff so apologies if it's already answered somewhere. I'm in the process of filling out my online application for naturalisation (been he...
