Has any of you sent prepaid envelope with their application? Does the approval come in a separate envelope or in one with your documents?

My approval letter came with my documents in the pre-paid envelope I sent with my application.

Just received my approval letter yesterday. Do i wait to be sent a citizenship invitation from the HO before booking my ceremony?

Thanks in advance

I have been informed to apply for a Biometric Residence Card and of course renew my non-EU passport. It is all money making.
Unfortunately, I am unable to take the new contract until I have all of this done.

This is the link stating the new laws from May There seem to be an exception for EEA family members so why was I told differently by the home office advisor https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/338399/An_employers_guide-28-07-14.pdfA summary of the changes to rig...

Thanks! I just called the employee check service at the home Office and they are saying since May this year, the visa has to be endorsed in a valid passport. Confirming what the agency said. The advisor I spoke to said a Biometric card can be applied for instead. Why is the Home Office not making th...

Thanks very much for the responses.

Is there any official website that provides information regarding this so I can email to the agency please? Thanks

Hello all,

Need some advice, I have been order a new contractor but just found out my password has expired even though my EEA residence permit is still valid. The agency is now saying there is a law ( passed this May) regarding this issue which makes my residency invalid.

Thanks in advance

I have another question in regards to the absence, my total absence in the past 5 years totals about 560 days and I wasn't physically in the UK March 5 years ago ( was planning on submitting my application in March).

What are my chances of a successful application?

Thank you. I've decided to wait a bit

Hi, I need some help to determine the maximum days of absences allowed in the 5 years when applying for British citizenship. I obtained my permanent residence in 2010 when I had to apply to retain my EEA residence permit after divorce from my ex. I have not been absent for more than 90 days in the p...

Thanks very much. It's a "Familienangehöriger", so I think it should be ok.
