The guidance booklet clearly says the BRP has to be surrendered on obtaining UK nationality and in fact you are charged a fine if not done so within a specific period. Unfortunately you did not read the fine print and nobody noticed it when you travelled in and out earlier. As has already been stat...

Having applied at the beginning of October, I was not expecting an answer any time soon but a few people with my circumstances have already been approved. Hoping to get something soon but still showing up as 'Awaiting decision' online. Pretty disappointing in my case if like you say, people applyin...

Nope, still shows decided. I called them up again and then was put on hold as the person was looking. and then was told , they cant do anymore, and asked me to write a letter. I am actually thinking to write an email to the MP from my constituency and tell him what money making racket this all is. ...

lack of consistency Something that is bound to occur when the input (the applications and documentation) itself is inconsistent. One application may be that of a non-EEA applicant who has been salaried and goes through smoothly, another may be that of a non-EEA citizen married to a British citizen,...

You have to pay ceremony fee of the type you choose ... The £80 you paid with the application fee is for the certificate and not for ceremony. And the certificate will be sent to your council.

And a couple of conclusions out of these statistics: - despite removal of last updated date from online checker - it looks like it is being updated at least once every working day - they are processing applications and pushing updates to the online checker - they are not in 100% sync as there were ...

Hi I applied for citizenship before receiving a court summons for speeding. I received approval for citizenship and invitation to ceremony last week. Today I received driving penalty record for points and pay fine £150 from court guilty decision. Do I take the citizenship offer? What is the risk? W...

Hello This is rather an odd query but me and my wife applied for ILR through Premium service on 28th Feb 2017 and we were successful the same day and issued the approval letter. Later when got our BRP, my issue date printed is 28th Feb 2017 and her for the followng day i.e is 1st March 2017. Can we...

How can you not remember this? Sounds fishy.

Hi I applied for my two kids using MN1 form (one each)and Westminster NCS. The two forms were sent in one envelope. I received confirmation email from home office with case ID number saying one kid name only. Is this number covering both applications or shall expect another email for the second kid...

You made this complicated really. You should have applied for british passport as soon as you were naturalised when you intended to leave the country for that long. The UKVI will sense fraud in your case as you did not handover your Indian passport affter you were naturalised. I am sure you travelle...

Hi National checking service, (Quick update) my wife was seen today and told she must sit an approved English language test at level B1, my wife works in a school full time and now has been in college for the last two years, she has no accent. The lady was so kind who was checking all my wife's doc...

Yes, on the advice of HO Rubbish advice from HO/NCS. My friend please repackage your application and go to another NCS. Just declare the FPN and not the parking fine. As long as you paid the parking fine on time. But I am a bit amazed why they issued you FPN for bus lane instead of PCN. Are you sur...

My Citizenship has been refused at interview due to having received one parking fine and one FPN for accidentally driving in a bus lane, in the last 12 months. Both fines were paid immediately and there were no other objections to my application. Is this a legal ground for refusal and how Can I app...

Hi Dear friends I told you I will keep you posted. My approval letter was received by my solicitor today and it was a success. I wish and pray success for you all. So my case was decided exactly in 8 weeks and the letter of approval was also received within the time limit specified on the online tr...

If you have received an invitation from the Council, can you not just book the ceremony with them? They want the ref number from the approval letter. May be the people that have received their letters can help with this. HO ref will be the case ID I am assuming!. Those numbers that start with '2'.

Have a day or two off, drive down there and get your certificate. otherwise, phone them and seek advice.

Please just do it this way. Take it as going on a holiday or going for an important interview. If you try to change it with HO, you might end up doing the ceremony in 2027

Hi guys I applied on the in August 2017. Application received on 17th August, biometrics on 23rd and after that status changed to awaiting decision. On 12th October status changed to decided. Doesnt sound very good to me when I see all other applicants still waiting for months. Is it a refusal? Wor...

Obtain Indian Passport for him.

What you can do is let the child sit over your neck and holding his/her hands. Enter the booth and all you need to do is kneel down or squart for him/her to level up with the camera. That is what my cousin did for his 21 months old son. If you expect him to be in the booth by himsefl/herself, it won...

Morning All I need some advice on Good character requirements. I been in the country for 14 years, i got my ILR in july 2010 but have not applied for my BC. I want to apply for my neutralisation, but a but worried i will get refused as i have 7 points on my licence for speeding. i Originally had 3 ...

You see! That confirmed what I said earlier. Laziness on the part of the case worker. Isn't triggeriing passport issuance part of the checklist they use in determining peoples' application? They forgot indeed! Only God knows how many people they have forgotten to treat their applications. Welldone m...

Why kind of checks? Obviously- they need to check ID, that the person making the application is the same person as the person referred to on the documents. They need to verify that the applicant is a British citizen, or British national, as the case may be. There are other checks which vary case by...

Declare your CCJ and the FPN for driving without licence. These 2 records are there in your name. Not declaring them will have negative effect on your application. If you pay the parking fines on time and there is no enforcement involved, you dont need to worry your head about them. Yes, you can app...
