I received a call today and an email reply from the indian high commission. The lady over the phone confirmed that one can apply for surrender without british passport but to apply for oci, british passport is mandatory. A written statement would do stating that "british passport is under process".

Hi, My wife is currently abroad with my two kids and will be coming back for her citizenship ceremony to be held in Apr'16. My question is once she has her british passport she will apply for her surrender and then Oci. After applying OCI, she is planning to go back to india on a short term visa (a...

British Passport or 2. a) Naturalisation certificate + b) an undertaking that a British passport application is under process and that you are okay with the surrender certificate and OCI being issued without British passport number mentioned on it. Thx for your quick response. I will no...

Hi

Do we need british passport for applying surrender certificate? Or only naturalization certificate would do?

Thanks

Yes, if u havent submitted the application you can edit details and modify content. If it doesnt allow you, u might have to start a new application altogether!!!

I dropped my OCI application at VFS Paddington, docs submitted: Application printout with photo and signature uploaded. 2 photographs as per specification: when u take the online print you have to affix one on the form and the other needs to be handed over to the VFS counter. Original and copy of Su...

Hi Asia, To be on a safer side, i have taken a photo copy of my previous application and also photocopied the one I have sent to them after re-signing and re-dating. You must submit your application as explained above. The date of application will be the date your form is received by the Home Office...

Also you paid for your NCS service, if anything was not compliant with the application the NCS officer should not have sent the a...

Dont panic. Me and my wife applied through NCS in Oct'15 and unfortunately the date we signed the application does not satisfy the residency requirement of physically being present exactly 5 years prior to your application. We both signed the application on 8th Oct'15. We both were away on holiday t...

[quote="secret.simon"]I believe that as you are now a British citizen, your wife can have the citizenship ceremony abroad. You may wish to check with the Home Office about it. Be aware that the ILR BRP must be surrendered within five days of the citizenship ceremony or you will be subject to a £1000...
