Re: Passport delivery - date changed by TNT

I would like others about their experiences with TNT. On Friday my new passport was sent and it had the delivery date 14 December (today). That has been convenient to me as it’s my day off. However by checking this morning it has changed to the 15th. I’m a bit worried they will keep delaying it to ...

Re: Supporting Document Return

Well I've been checking TNT website every few hours or so and this morning finally there is a new consignment number supposedly with supporting documents. I do fear that after all of this my brand spanking new certificate will be in pieces or who knows maybe they are sending an empty envelope just ...

Re: Supporting Document Return

Sorry for confusion, found out to login the pan number with the PEX and no spaces. Could enter my TNT account and my passport is delivered on Monday, but no words about supporting documents on there. You're probably going to be in the same situation as some of us here. I got my passport with TNT on...

Re: Supporting Document Return

Just a quick update, I did live chat with the passport service and the lady told me the documents have been picked up by TNT (they were the ones who brought me the passport as well) and will be delivered this Monday. So might be worth checking on the TNT website HERE using your PEX number and your p...

Re: Supporting Document Return

I got my UK passport on 30.11 and since then I haven't received my foreign passport and the certificate of naturalization. I did the webchat with someone last Friday and they said my documents haven't been picked up yet by the courier and I should wait for about 2 weeks. So I'm just waiting for the ...

Hi all, I applied for a citizenship, naturalisation route and I have a settled status. I am trying to book an appointment for my biometric with UKVCAS but all I can find (whatever time I try to book) is just appointments with a fee. I read many of you managed to book a free appointment. Am I missin...

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

Postman's been....no invitation. I even went as far as checking with my neighbors if they have received my letter because sometimes the postman's a different person and he mixes up the addresses (I live in 57, and I always get mail for 51 or 75 and vice-versa) but they got nothing either. I emailed...

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

I signed the petition. I also think they should change the request to have 2 referees of specific professions because the list of professions is ridiculous! I know no one who has such professions so I got a manager in a private company to be a referee for me and luckily they accepted that but not ev...

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

Some of you are really lucky that your councils allow you to book online. Mine does not have that option, they operate on the "don't call us, we'll call you" principle. Even if you get your invitation and call them, they say "no, can't book now, we'll call you to book it with you" which is extremely...

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

Dear all friends, I had researched a lot by taking opportunities to friends-circle, HO and council. They have already sent a large amount certificates and haven't put on the system yet. You are going to know on Monday. Please do call your local council and you would be surprised, I feel. Some might...

Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

Well with a new national lockdown, the HO will have a different thing to blame now. Before they were blaming the old lockdown, now they will be blaming the new lockdown. The new lockdown will probably cause a new backlog which will be cleared in 2028 probably! Even if they only shut the non-essentia...
