You can use the online form to fill the passport application. They would then print it out and send you over to sign and attach photographs etc. Alternatively can grab an application form from the nearest post office and fill it yourself. Application form itself is very easy to fill and simple. Yes ...

They come in royal mail unless you arranged/paid for a special service.

I would put Aug 2008 as that is when you came to stay long term.

I think this is usual these days. Some discussion here

UKBA might be catching up with the back log?

5. It is not after getting British passport but after becoming British following the ceremony. Check the HCI website for details. I wonder how this works. From the required document checklist , it is essential to have a new British passport according to vfs "Self attested photocopy of British / For...

I am no immigration expert..but as far as I know,

2. There is no dependant status on ILR which means she can live in the UK on her own

Yes. It is not returned. I don't think you would need it from now on.

Is this regarding a status update? When did you apply? If your application is less than 6 months old and selected the options 2, 1 your call with get ended after an automated message.

Hi All, Can some one help me please? i am really very confused and stressed...so any help would be really appreciated. I got my ILR in Nov 2011 under HSMP JR, as i am in the country since 2001.

You cannot send application 1 month earlier like a ILR application. Have to complete the 5+1/2+1 years requirement before sending.

Please make some effort to search the web or read through the UKBA website.

No. of years in UK depends on what visa type you currently on. There is no requirement to have a job in the UK.

First and foremost thing...this is not the right section to post about Indian immigration. Use this section If you had to travel urgently, I would suggest getting a visa instead of OCI waiting time. According to this thread , surrendering an Indian passport would take 3-10 working days. Going by thi...

Does it matter what immigrationboards members think? :) Would any member bother bringing a change to the system after his/her application has been approved? 1. How do you classify an application as straight forward or complex? 2. Forget about premium service. I would wish to see system that an appli...

Call the same number, ask them for a private ceremony. They've miost likely received notification of your naturailisation, so they'd be able to tell when they can fix a ceremony for you. I think cost differs according to council, I think mine was 60 pounds. Thanks, I did it for this coming friday 1...

Hi Guys, i had my ilr done last year and now looking forward to next step of citizenship.

Apologies to midowatford for misguiding and thanks to jms_uk for pointing out the sticky.

If I were you, I would wait until 16/09/2012 and not risk losing the application fee.

P.S: I have removed my previous comments just so someone would read and go with my assumptions.

First child passport could take upto 3weeks from the date you applied. Our baby's passport arrive within 2weeks.

Please have a look at the timeline thread
