OP has been granted a Spouse Visa and ILR, dont see why they should refuse the Nationality application. Sometimes given more than required confuses things so a sensible approach is always the best way forward Previous Immigration history is a factor the HO look at, If however you have been legally h...

I wouldnt risk it, why are you in a hurry to get the ceremony done, you can book this for anytime within the next 3 months. I would avoid uneccesary complications wherever I can. Also another solution I was mentioned, After talking the oath, a person can use his Indian passport for 3 months initiall...

dude being an investment banker myself, I would recommend she tries for HR in Inv Banks. Of all the damage the regulators have/are doing we need some help for all of us who are going cuckoo. Her degree might help in getting her in. just a suggestion Ok, this constant updating of rules and making it ...

As long as you dont lie or hide information you should be fine. If you are upfront then they dont have much to penalise you on as you are legally here now, dont give thema chance to get you.

dude they cant address a letter to an infant or a Minor (per say) hence it is addressed to the legal guardian or the other way is to address to the minor but then specify C/O (care Off) legal guardain Hello members, Can somebody please confirm if the MN(1) acknowledgment letter is addressed to the p...

none to be honest, this might be an unchanges template. HO has Word Docs used as templates and they dont always change everything on it before sending it out. I got a letter from the HO once addressing me as Mr XXXX and the next paragraph said if you need your Husband's documents back..... which is ...

These guys can act as referees (professionals) as they are managers of a registered VAT company. One of these atleast should be British- FYI Hi Jambo Hope you are well. Would you please advise me the following? a. Finance Controller (Manager) of VAT registered company b. Senior Account Manager of VA...

Well I would put the address of the "New Council" on the AN form where they ask for the address of the council you want your ceremony to be done, This has to be specified else the HO assume you want this done at your existing council (based on your postcode) Hi Me and wife are applying for naturaliz...

Previous Immigration history is a factor the HO look at, If however you have been legally here after marriage with your spouse then I dont see this being a big issue.

Went through NCS and got mine yesterday, so this doesnt seem like any change in the operating model

it happened to me as well.

First time I am hearing this, but I can see where they are coming from as you do get a confirmation from NCS I applied via NCS about a month ago - fees have been deducted but I still haven't received an acknowledgement letter. So I called them today and they said that if application is made via NCS ...

If you have waited for 1 year after the date of Issue of PR then you ca leave the section blank. This only needs to be filled in if you have completed 6 years on a FP but have yet to complete 1 year on paper i.e. from the date the PR was issued. I had a similar situation and the NCS lady didnt ask a...

The parents details are required to be filled in but Grandparents section could be left blank, the IPS need this information to check " if you unknowingly qualify for a passport anyways and also for security checks" I won't be able to fill in all the details either. Eg. they have my passport and I d...

What you do is book your ceremony within 21 days for after 2.5 months, as long as you have the ceremony within 3 months you should be fine, that way you can get married and come back and get the ceremony done and you will not have to risk travelling on an Indian passport after taking the naturalisat...

You cant afford to have the wrong name on the Naturalisation certificate. passport is just a travel document. get this corrected on the certificate before you face issues. Thank you so much. How about if I applied for the passport and used my marriage certificate as proof of my new name? Would that ...

As usual Jambo is spot on. I just had my interview, I had the PR sticker on an A4 paper. I applied Iyear and 1 day from the date of issue on sticker, went smoothly with NCS. They didnt ask me anything else. I had left the Section with EEA details blank as I have been divorced for a while now. HO sho...

If there are no CCJ's then you should be fine, I assume you havent been decalred bankrupt as well. Late payments shouldnt be a problem.

Read the Letter CAREFULLY!!!! do any of these scenarios apply to you: 1. Are you taking care of an EEA National who cant look after him/herself 2. Are you an Unmarried partner of an EEA National? 3.

All docs required are on the lat page of the AN form. the list you have is fine (infact you dont need your license counterpart as well as long as you have the photocard license. UKB Ref Number would be on any communication you have had with the HO previously, they put this as Ref on the letters they...

ignore the letter, its a standard template. You can continue doing what you do. Unless HO reject your claims and revoke your RC (which I am not sure they will do if everything is in order) you should be good to continue like you do now. P.S if you already have an RC it makes life easier, if not then...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, your solicitor sounds like an idiot. When the HO have put all the rules/qualifying criteria's in black and white I am not sure how assumptions can be made in regard to that. HO are NOT bound to contact you to ask for updated qualifications, thats why the rules sai...

Thank you all for your thoughts, I think going via NCS does reduce the risk and authenticates all documents that are submitted, tjis might not have worked if i made a direct application with the HO. My local NCS only photocopied my LIUK certificate and My application went through smoothly. I also kn...

cheers mate, so its normal for them to just take a copy then, thats re-assuring
