Hi All, Just wanted to check something. I applied for naturalisation today via NCS. I had taken all my documents. Surprisingly the lady photocopied everything including the LIUK test Certificate and returned everything to me. I thought I would need to send the original to the HO, but she said they j...

cheers dude for the reply. Also if I just put the Self Assesment Ref Number down and NOT the PAYE that should fine correct? I imagine there should be no issues as I pay Self assesment and no Tax and NI under PAYE It should not be a problem as long as a payment plan is set up with HMRC. They can chec...

Keep your questions to one thread and they will be answered... dont waste your and other people's time with multiple posts Hi. i have laminated my marriage certificate and life in uk test cer...

I have the statement from HMRC which shows I have paid £35k i...

personal license holder can be a bar manager or anyone who holds a license in his/her name to sell alchohol at a particular premises. Sorry but can someone please help me to understand what does 'Personal Licence Holder' mean? Personal Licence Holder is one of the professionals who can act as refere...

You have got this all wrong, people are trying to tell others waiting not to use this avenue unless its absolutely neccesary. No where did they apply you were selfish, froom what I make out you were not sure that they would actually process your application. What you did now, I did in July and got m...

hey reda, jsut wanted to play it easy, its best you wait for another year or so and get everything sorted then apply. HO when they see 1yr after PR date they will not see/ask for anymore (hopefully!!!!) Hi All - this question might have been asked here before so I apologise for repeating the questio...

sorry lucapooka if the OP already had ILR in 2010, then cant he apply for BC now as 1 year has passed. I am not sure why does the 5 year residency rule kick in. assuming he woudl apply on the basis of mariage to a BC, Sinice divorce was finalised in 2012 I think BC can be applied for even now. am I ...

Also any time spent outside the country due to employment is not a problem as long as you can substantiate that you were working there. A letter from employer stating this would do the trick, so I wouldnt worry about the number of days you are way from UK in the last year (2012) Hi, I hope any of yo...

I'm about to apply for first UK passport after naturalisation. The passport application requires signature of one refree, question is can the refree be the same as the one that signed my naturalisation form?

If the Police just took names then that is routine, if they dismissed this as being trivial and police involvement not needed then you should be fine, you were NOT even given a caution, so I would just leave this out. You can put this down, but it will just delay the application. I woudl have put it...

ILR and PR mean the same, you just get them vai different routes. Hi, ya Please can anyone help me with this. Im PR (permanent residence) holder more than 2 years. My son only has a RC residency card as EEA dependant for 5 years. It has past 3 years already. Now im applying for my BC and I d like to...

UKBA clearly says "Bank Employee" it doesnt matter if the person is a trader, head of Desk, analyst or CEO of a bank. go by the broader term not my job description. Thanks Bobobo. Did you get this confirmed with UKBA? Just want to be sure regarding the professional referee. anyone working in a bank ...

Oh, and two other (related) question, if I may: I just would like to confirm one thing: The "date of application" is the day that the package (form AN + assorted paperwork) physically arrives in Liverpool. It is not the date the Home Office acknowledges my application. Is that correct? If postal ap...

Please reade the Guide -AN which answers all the questions. Also towards the end of the form-AN it categorically says what documents are needed. Thank for your reply Actually I have read the link you sent I want to adjust with my situation How do I fill Section 3.1 to 3.5 of Form AN, as I have no jo...

it generally helps if you have a PR card, however you can apply for naturalisation on the 6th anniversary of you being in this country (exercising your rights) in your case this would be Jan 2012. As long as you can prove you are eligible in terms of exercising treaty rights and ample days in the UK...

anyone working in a bank should be fine to act as a referee, had my own doubts but got this confirmed. Can an Insurance Analyst working in a Bank qualify to be a professional referee for Naturalization application? Can anyone working in a bank be a professional referee or must they hold some kind of...

try not to be a pr**k all your life. Lukappoca tried to help and you started behaving like an idiot. if his words were harsh it was becuase you asked a fairly "dumb" question. Dont like the help then Shove of from this forum and country, there is no point in helping people like you anyways. I will s...

Then Go Back and stop begging HO for them to grant you Leave to remain in this "Tax Ripping Country"!!!! Because you are not settled in the UK, she can't apply as anything other than a general visitor. But your situation and circumstances can't be excluded from the evaluation, and her ties and motiv...

Well I have submitted the Self Assesment statement address (if You a director of a ltd company). If PAYE this should be your tax office address check your p60. I'm currently completing the form AN and wondering about the question "3.5 Address of tax office or tax office reference" on this form. Shou...

Hi Just wanted to check if Investment Bankers could act as referee's. HO guidelines just say Bankers.

I have asked 2 of my colleagues to act as referee's (both British) but just though would re-check this

Please let me know your thoughts,
thanks again guys

I am not sure that labour would want to bring the topic of Immigration up in the parliament, even though this is not "Uncontrolled Immigation". He is smart enough not to shoot himself in the foot. COntact Keith Vaz instead I would say. I just had a thought about contacting the labour party and notif...
