Re: Help Me Please Urgently

@gozo1 Funnily enough, you do not have ANY RIGHT to be in this country! You are not born with the right to reside wherever you want, you EARN that right by meeting certain requirements (for each country you wish to live in), which the OP has not met. To your other point - We have paid plenty and hav...

Re: Help Me Please Urgently

Thanks Wanderer! I am a tough woman :) I find it very upsetting that someone in this difficult immigration situation and personal financial situation - being evicted, etc. would decide to have another child (the wife is 6 month pregnant!!!). This is cruel and inhumane to their children, and it is si...

Re: Help Me Please Urgently

And this is exactly why this country needs to crack down on all illegal immigrants who abuse our immigration and benefits systems and deport them back to their homelands. New tougher immigration laws that are starting to come out will make it super tough for people with no right to be in this countr...

Re: Nuturalisation spouse of British citizen 3years complex!

Hi khaledadda,

I believe the 10 years start from the day you left the UK as an overstayer. But I let other people on the forum correct me if I am wrong.

Re: Nuturalisation spouse of British citizen 3years complex!

Normally, I just read this forum and very rarely provide my advice or opinions but I do have a strong opinion on this one. I agree with the previous posters as I can't see why the new rules for Good Character requirement will not apply in the case of being a spouse of BC and don't find it to be a va...

Re: British Passport application processing timelines (only)

Appointments can be booked by calling 0300 222 1000

However, you have to have the Reference number for your interview appointment (included on the interview letter and it is different from the application number). They will not let you book an appointment without the interview number.

Re: Foreign Passport Lost by Royal Mail

Hi guys, Thanks for your replies. To clarify - I got my first passport when I was 15 using my birth certificate, since then I only had to use my current / "expiring" passport to get the new one. In the process my parents' house in Ukraine got burgled and all our documents got stolen, they never both...

I went to my ceremony yesterday, and right after that I posted my British passport application (complete with my original - one and only - foreign passport and naturalization certificate) to Peterborough office.
