Re: April 2015 Naturalisation -Knowledge of Language Require

NARIC's statement of comparability and medium of instruction letter from university will be enough. Make sure statement of comparability clearly states that your degree is equal to British Bachelors degree. Or Master's degree.

Re: Advice on filling form AN for naturalisation

I called NCS to book and appointment they said you need to fill the latest form from April 2015. The latest form shows "March 2015" at the front page. Why is that?

Re: Eligibility Confusion - 90 days compensation Tier 1 rout

So that means I can apply after 3rd May 2015. But my 5 years in UK will not be completed until August 2015 as I landed in UK on 7th August.

When is my wife eligible as she landed in March 2010 and got ILR with me on 3rd Mar 2014.

Re: Application for British Citizenship

As your wife got ILR in August 2013, she is eligible for British Citizenship from August 2014. You both can apply for citizenshiop straight away. Don't wait for 2016 or until your BC.

Re: BRP and New Passport

Please stop confusing people. You only need old passport if your ILR sticker was pasted on it. If you already got BRP then you don't need old passport.

New passport PLUS BRP.

That's it.

I don't understand why they sent your card to your old lawyer. They always ask and confirm the address where biormetric card will be sent. At least they confirmed me the address.
