Hi guys, Unfortunately my app has 'fallen in the back of the draw' somewhere since 13th of March 13. I have chased UKBA using the e-mail addresses, filed an official complaint, wrote to my local MP who agreed to write to the Director to chase this up. UKBA are aware that I had done those things and ...

Hi, My Naturalisation decision is still not here - applied on 13/03/2013 through NCS. I am aware that it is pretty pointless contacting the local MP before 6 months has passed, however I just want to be prepared. Please could somebody advise how to contact the MP in the area & what the MPs can actua...

Still waiting from 13th March...

Hi guys, Just a quick question to pick your brains... Is there a time limit of when you have to apply for BRITISH PASSPORT by, after acquiring the naturalisation certificate? My mother is from Latvia originally & has got her naturalisation certificate now, but looking to wait until October as Latvia...

Hi,

Am I the only one waiting from March?

I applied on 13th March via NCS...

E-mailed UKBA and got a reply stating that application is in progress and can take 6 months.

Sick of waiting

Hi guys, those of you still waiting may be interested in my timeline: Application date:13/03/2013 via NCS Fees taken: 06/04/2013 (due to a payment being 'declined') Acknowledgement letter: dated 06/04/2013 Decision letter: awaiting I am an EEA national (acquired PERMANENT RESIDENCE blue card thing i...

Hi everyone, Please could you confirm that you only need to provide two kind of documents along with the passport application after naturalisation (on own rights, no parents/heritage involved): original (foreign) passport of original nationality & naturalisation certificate? I'm a little worried as ...

Hi,

Is anyone still waiting? I applied on the 13th, still nothing

Hi,

When I had my NCS appointment, the lady said that they only send a copy of it as it's in their guidelines, UKBA have electronic proof of Life in the UK Certificate on their systems. Perhaps explain this in the 'further information' section of the AN form and provide a reference number, if known.

Hi,

I would suggest checking the back of AN form, it states what you need to provide for each section.

You could take wage slips or P45/P60/letters from employer with you, if you have been a worker.

I'm still waiting for my decision also. Straight forward EEA national, 5 years PR + 1 year.

I applied on the 13th March, but they did not debit my payment for 2 and a half weeks.

We just have to be patient. It seems that spouse applications get processed as a priority.

Hi, Actually they did say to send it to The Capital, but I just sent it to the PO Box one and they debited the fee within 4 working days. I don't think it matters which address you send it to that much - must end up in the same place! Did they try to debit the payment from you and failed or did they...

Hi there, I just posted it to: UKBA North West Region Nationality Team PO BOX 306 Liverpool L2 0QN They debited the fee pretty fast. I recommend sending the payment to them using Recorded Delivery (i.e. 1st class sign for). It seems it's been an issue as a friend of mine had her appointment at NCS y...

Dear all, We submited our application & docs via NCS on 02/04/2013 but no news/mail/post yet? Money has not been deducted yet? How did you get those updates when you made the application? Thanks They can take a little while to debit the fees (a week or so). They will write to you to acknowledge the...

Hi guys, just an update: received a letter from UKBA stating that NCS did not include the payment slip. I then sent it to them and they have finally debited the fees (06/04/13).

Hi any one here applied on or around 12 March. I have applied on 12 march , fee was taken on 19 march but no acknowledgement letter. any suggestions should contact UKBA or keep waiting. Keep waiting. I applied on the 8th of March and i received my acknowledgement on the 21st!! Hi there, I applied o...

Date of debit of fees: UKBA attempted 29 Oct (put last 3 digits) at back of card wrongly, hence declined. Rang to pay on the phone 07/11/2012. Date of receipt of acknowledgement: 02 November 2012 dated 29 October 2012 (received another acknowledgement dated 13 Feb 2013) after sending emails checkin...

Thank you for your reply. I got in touch with my bank, LTSB and they advised that there was a decline on the card. UKBA entered incorrect details which caused the payment to fail. Still haven't heard about this directly from UKBA but sent my payment details again (including a covering letter stating...

Hi guys, Just wanted to advise that I applied through NCS on 13/03/2013 and UKBA received the application on the 14/03/2013 however still have not taken the payment. Is anyone in the same position? Looking back at the timeline posts, most people get charged within 5 working days. Route: EEA National...

I applied via NCS on the 13/03/13 and they still have not debited the fee gave debit card details.
Not sure if anyone else facing such delays?

Hi,

I've done quite a lot of research into the 'Good Character' requirement and there is nothing that states bad credit would make you a bad candidate.

I have however read that it is best to declare if you have been declared yourself bankrupt.

Good luck!
