Re: investigation letter from home office.

The Home Office logo on this letter looks quite old, from 2003 year:

Re: investigation letter from home office.

Realistically, Home Office has to prove that you lied aboit your intentions to stay in the UK at the time of the application. However, circumstances can change. For example, one can get a good job offer abroad and move there temporariky. Who is to say this is not allowed? If this is indeed how Home ...

This is just great! So, after they have effectively closed the door to reunification with the elderly parents, will they start prosecuting those naturaluzed citizens who dared to leave the UK to take care of them?

Re: HEADS UP! - English language requirement

Thanks for the warning. This is really annoying how they are contradicting themselves in their own guide, where they clearly say that those who fulfilled their KoLL after October 2013 don't have to do it again.

Paying 1000 pounds probably makes you even more unncomfortable. So what? Just give them the information they ask you for, if you really want to apply for citizenship.

Re: May 2015 Naturalization Application TIMELINE ONLY

The same pattern (delayed April-June applications) held last year too. The reason was that staff was moved to help with the spike in the passport applications during the summer season. Perhaps this is a seasonal issue.

If you did not, then declaring it now may lead to them believing that you deceived them previously. 9 months non-custodial sentence is quite serious, as far as the UK is conce...
