I'm travelling to the US at the end of the month. Last time I was in the US was 2017 and for ESTA I used my Spanish passport. Last year I became British citizen. Not sure which passport to use to enter the US now, if the Spanish one I used before or the British one. I live in the UK so I'd rather ca...
My supporting documents arrived Tuesday, just over week after receiving my passport. I paid for the secure delivery. I didn't get any email from the passport office saying the documents were being sent but I got one from TNT on the morning of delivery. You can track it using the same PEX number on t...
Update - you do get an email from HMPO stating that your documents are Out of Delivery on the day. You can also use this site instead to track: https://delivery.tnt.com/tracking Just enter your postcode and application reference number which is your Passport Application number without the PEX. When...
How do we know when the supporting documents (original passport and certificate) are being sent after receiving the British passport? Do they tell you it's on the way? It doesn't say anywhere
I paid £5 for secure delivery

If you receive documents received twice from HMPO it means they moved your application from one post to another. It happened to me. I sent my document to Peterborough but they moved to Liverpool after 12 days. I understand that they have a lot of backlog as a lot of people are applying for passport...
Hi, I made a mistake too with my address , I typed the wrong house number. I asked customer services what to do since we can't update anything once submitted, they said to write a covering letter explaining the mistake and write the right address along my documents. I'm sending a bill as well as pro...
When I asked him first he told me his profession should be fine, but after HMPO rejected him he told me that maybe he was rejected because he wasn't a manager anymore 🤷♀️. Anyway I asked another friend and she called HMPO to check, they confirmed that she should be fine to verify my identity. my f...
If after the person you asked has verified your identity and you get an automated email saying so and another asking to send your documents, does that mean your referee was approved? or do they still need to check that person?. I worry because my referee doesn't have one of those professions listed...

Hi,
can anyone tell me if they ever had a countersignatory rejected on the British passport application because their profession is not listed and they had just a supervisory role at their workplace and not a recognised profession ?

Now, another small annoyance is stopping me from getting my British passport. I don't want to apply for a passport right now, because my hair style during the lockdown is a total disaster, and I don't want that to be on my passport for 10 years. I will wait for the hairdressers and barbers to reope...
Hey all! So I got my letter for citizenship in January (HOORAY!) but when I contacted Hounslow council about the ceremony, they informed me that they never plan on opening up private ceremonies again (this can't be true??) I understand we're still in lockdown, but a strong part of me was really hop...

Blimey , I've just booked my ceremony with Hounslow council, I knew most likely would be virtual but I wasn't expecting to wait until June 2nd this is absurd to have to wait this long for a virtual ceremony on top of all the waiting I've already done. At least they didn't ask me to pay
Hi everyone, My approval date is 11 December but still there is no news has anyone had their ceremony invitation? :( Hi, I also got approval on 11 December and waiting for the ceremony invitation letter as you are! I just received my ceremony invitation today. I was approved 11 Dec 2020. Ceremony l...
you still have to wait for the physical letter on the post? why not the pdf they sent you? I'm not sure because my council hasn't received my certificate either. I had mentioned this in the email, now even if i assume the pdf is enough, they still want me to wait for the certificate to come in to t...
I got my nationality approval email on 30th November 2020 but hadn't received any correspondence from the Home Office since then. I then actually emailed the nationality casework decision service, the address of which was in the email I received with the decision. In my case this was CT3CaseworkEnq...
