Re: Help with the AN form!

I think so. If you're going to NCS take everything you have with you. I had employment letters and P60s, but they took whatever covered the 5 yr period.

Re: Help with the AN form!

I'm a bit confused about the documents to bring to the NCS, as a non married without children person what they basically ask is the passport, life in uk and language exam certificate? no P60, bills or bank statements as the permanent residence card application? http://www.wandsworth.gov.uk/info/200...

Re: Residence card for AN form

Why don't you simply call NCS now? Isn't that easier (and cheaper) than going in person and losing money?

All you have to do is call them and tell them the date on your letter and ask whether you should still go next week or reschedule.

Re: Residence card for AN form

From what I know you don't need a job to naturalise, once you have your PR status and PR card. You can be retired or simply looking for another job. Just mention the truth in your application - you left your job on date XX, and you're looking for another one - and that's all. If Home Office calls yo...

If they ask why, tell them the date on your letter - the one that came with the PR card. If you go now in January, you mi...

Re: UK citizenship question

I believe you're confusing terms. If you've only lived for 4 years in the UK you don't have permanent resident (PR) status yet. Only after living for 5 years in the UK you can get PR status (if you meet the PR conditions), and you need to apply for a card (DCPR) to confirm that status. And you can o...

Thanks. I guess I can put the passport ones on a credit card and pay off when I get my January salary... I saved the funds for citizenship only. :)

Re: joint citizenship and passport application - payment timeline?

Thanks, so basically at the time of appointment nothing is really paid, but I need to ensure all funds are in my account after that.

But the passport fees are not taken until the citizenship application is approved, right? So those will take a while?

Re: MN1 baby of EEA parent

I don't think you need to apply using MN1 (and pay that hefty fee), because your child might already be British. All you need to do is prove that you already had PR status (not card, just status) at the time of your child's birth. As the poster above suggests, you may be able to apply directly for p...

Re: Architects: accepted professional referees for UK naturalisation?

If they are qualified and registered with a professional body, yes. One of my architect friends was a referee on several (successful) BC applications.

You should not rely on information obtained on an Internet forum though :)
