She does not require her parents' passports or birth certificates in order to get a first British passport. Those parental details are not relevant since she gained British citizenship by birth. She just needs to prove her own identity, i.e. her GRO birth certificate, marriage and associated name c...
Has any one requested to expedite their first passport after naturalization. Now I know the website says you can't do this for first passport but I think I may have seen here someone do it before. Interested to hear from them.
cheers
Today I have completed the application for Naturalisation as a British Citizen. I have paid and downloaded the referee forms as requested. I am then unable to print them. Any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong? maybe you don't have pdf or your printer isn't properly connected. Sounds lik...
I only scanned my stamped pages and I got my approval. Although don’t think it’s that much more effort to scan even empty pages too if it gives you peace of mind
I was in a similar situation. Did random agency work when I was at uni for a few years. I did request 10year SAR from HMRC and that didnt have exact dates either. So In the end I just wrote in the additional information box towards the end of online application that I did temporary work of less than...
UKVI do not require proof of address. UKVCAS ask for proof of address (they asked me) but when I asked they could not explain why they want to see it when UKVI do not request it. Therefore, there is no "definition" of proof of address. Take what you have and don't worry. Thank you so much for your ...
If you are looking at the fastest route after the ceremony, I wonder if online is quicker than postal check and send service? Hard to tell from the timelines but I suspect online may be slightly quicker , I don't have evidence for this though.
Hi Cr001...do u have any information as to when home office start working on an application after receiving all supporting documents and biometric enrollment? They only communicate if they need extra documents from you. If its approved, you just get a letter in the post in a brown envelope. Will ta...
Once you are a British citizen, you cannot be refused entry into the UK, but the BRP could be impounded at the airport or port by the Border Force Immigration Officers. That’s an interesting thread. Doesn’t seem like fine was in place at that time. You are right one can’t be refused entry at the bo...
I was told that I will not receive any email. You will just get an approval letter in the post if HO doesn't have any queries. What date did you apply? Many People are currently receiving 5-6 weeks after their biometrics date so if its been a month then you should receive it soon. Had the appointme...
I applied through UKVCAS over a month ago giving my biometrics as well at the same time and the staff there had told me that I would receive a confirmation email in a few days that my application has been sent. I haven’t received any email or anything as yet, just wondering if this is normal or sho...
Has anyone here travelled on their ILR BRP and foreign passport after attending naturalization ceremony. Now I know there's a potential fine of£1000 if BRP is not returned , but I wonder if anyone has done this recently and have had any issues at the border?
for first passport , if you apply using post office, I hear the application might be a bit quicker? but I read somewhere that if you apply using post office you have to send your current foreign passport too. Is that right? Whether you apply online or use the post office, you still have to send you...
hmm I see what you mean. I wonder what will happen if someone who has attended ceremony shows up at the border with their ILR. Technically they can't stop you from entering as you are already british but they might fine you I guess... If you apply for your passport on the same day as your ceremony,...

:( I have to travel as it is all booked. Looks like I might have to defer which is annoying. what if I write to home office explaining that I will be travelling using existing ILR as a one off Don't expect any response from HO. They don't care. Your ILR is completely superceded the day you become B...
so what are my options then, defer my ceremony? and what happens if I don't defer my ceremony but don't get my british passport in time, can I travel using foreign passport and enter the UK back using the naturalisation certificate? Either defer ceremony or don't travel or risk using a invalid BRP ...
got my approval today using the new online system. I have my citizenship ceremony on 5th March and on 22nd March am travelling outside the country. Do you think that will be enough time to receive the British passport? What I don't want is to send my BRP after the ceremony back to home office but t...
