Is the check and send fee paid for each family member applying? I would just like to have check and send for myself. My partner will be applying for passport at same time- but no need to have her form sent. Simply using the service for the special delivery option and that the waiting time may be sli...

But not happy that my council say nothing available until jan and they don't e...

I applied at NCS Barnet at the Brent Civic Centre earlier this month. It was sent via Secure DX to UKBA in Liverpool. The employee there said the bag is filled with all applications from that day and sent out in afternoon around 4.30pm I was a bit surprised as all other NCS posters mentioned Royal M...
Hi there I have about 2 years ago Naturalised as a British Citizen and did not request to retain my SA citizenship. I am planning a trip to SA in Mar 2014 entry into SA with my British Passport, do you think I will have hassle with Border Control upon SA entry? Thank you Nothing to worry about. You...
Yes. If they find out- you will have lost your za citizenship. If necessary, they will give you permanent residence upon application- but if you want to regain your citizenship and obtain a passport- you will have to love in South Africa for a minimum of 1 year http://southafricahouseuk.com/passport...
Your date calculations are correct. However, your NCS will not guarantee your application will be received by UKBA on the next day. If it takes two daqys ( mine did ), you could be throwing away your fee. If you were only gone from the UK for a short period, you should wait until the next period wh...

With two months to conquer Everest I started the ball rolling to book an appointment with NCS, however I was informed by the NCS that I cannot travel for 5days after submitting the BC application. My understanding is this requirement has been removed ..... ! It's shambolic that most people offering...
I have almost identical question: iLR was granted on 9th October 2012 (this is also the date stated on my biometric card) I want to apply at NCS on 8th october 2013 which means it will be received on 9th October. Is this ok? For the key test- of being physically present 5 years earlier and being fre...
On all the timelines , users state the date when application was received by the home office. How is this determined? Are people simply using the tracking feature on the Royal Mail website?
