The requirement is to have a valid passport for entry to the UK, so take both DK (valid) and UK (expired) passports. Show both - it shouldn't be a problem as UK citizens cannot be refused entry to the UK. Maybe a few extra minutes of questions.

Thank you so much, that's reassuring!

Hello, My husband is a UK and Danish citizen. His UK passport has expired but he has not renewed it yet because he wants to change his last name first, and that is taking a while as has to be done in the Danish passport first. We have a trip booked to Israel this summer, will he be about to get back...

Mine has been processing for 3 months and nothing yet. Very tempted to send email but wouldn't I just get the standard reply that it can take up to 6 months or even more? OP let us know if you do email and hear back.

Never mind, got my letter one day after posting this. Good luck!

Hello all, I have really tried hard to find answers for my questions before posting but wasn't finding them, and I have my Croydon document appointment tomorrow! I am applying for naturalisation. I currently hold Permanent Residence (my husband is a British Citizen, we did the Surinder Singh route)....

So happy to hear this thread helped someone!
I officially gained PR in December
I did indeed add some of my husband's payslips since Nov 2016 as well as a letter from his employer (where he's been working since then).
Good luck!

I think it's possible but I wonder why would you want to do that? The Surinder Singh route is a much quicker and cheaper way of gaining PR and naturalisation. Hello, we won’t qualify for permanent residence as i wasn’t a qualified person for 5 years continuously. So looking at other options. I call...

Did you ever request your passport? Did you get it back without the application getting withdrawn?

Any update on this? I just did my biometrics yesterday and really want my passport urgently to travel but am worried because of this case so I haven't filled out the request for the return...

Really? So if applying for PR (EEA4) as a family member of a British Citizen (Surinder Singh) before November 1st, once I get my passport back I cannot travel? I have a lot of business travel. I even asked people who work at immigration at London airports what would happen if I arrived with only my ...

I see that applicants who get their passports back during an application would not be able to travel outside the UK without their application becoming withdrawn, if one applies after November 1st - is that correct?
This is a really terrible change!

The Home Office released many changes to immigration rules yesterday. More info here: Free Movement Blog Entry and here Rules text It appears that for visa applications after November 1st, even if an applicant's passport is returned, leaving the UK will count as withdrawing the application! I would ...

Any update Juliet ? Does claiming tax credit and child benefits have any negative impact on applying for PR with BC being self sufficiency ? There is a gap of 3 months without CSI , will this also affect my application Hey, I have actually not yet applied for the PR though I will soon. I don't know...

I will send a pre-paid envelope with my application like you, that is a really great idea and I think I did that for my RC application too. This means I won't even have to ask for the passports back via the online form, they'll just send them back? Correct, however, just to make sure the message wa...

Hi kamoe, thank you, that was very helpful. You are right I should try to apply as soon as possible, I am already eligible to apply as the wife of a British citizen.I will send a pre-paid envelope with my application like you, that is a really great idea and I think I did that for my RC application ...

To clarify, I am an Israeli national. Would I be able to re-enter the country while application was ongoing? Would they be able to see in the computer what visa I was under and that I have been in and out many times over the past 5 years?

Hello all, I am due to apply for Permanent Residence soon via Surinder Singh. My current five year residence card will expire in mid November and I assume I can apply at any stage until then, and will have to submit this card. My questions: 1. At what stage can I ask for my passport back? When I rec...
