It would help and give reassurance to those who have cautions,non-c...

Re: Naturalization Application & Police Caution

It would be of interest and helpful for those who have cautions on their records that after doing some research need_a_tier_1 , Zimba2205, milleniumx99 were all successful in their BC applications and the important thing to note is that they all applied after the change in BC rules which came into f...

Apply for a new passport and then apply for citizenship and I don't think that it's a good idea to change your place of birth now as it might create unwanted problems for you in your BC Application so keep it consistent with the rest of your immigration applications. Why you are so keen to change it...
