Thanks Tim. He never even asked us for payslips, possibly because our bank statement showed that we always have a good amount of money in our account even after all the bills and rent have left it. So i guess that would show we wouldn't be relying on benefits anyway. I also wrote a covering letter ...

It was not the same lady who I spoke to yest...

Thankfully we DIDN'T take the advice of the first person who commented. I wrote covering letters to explain anything that was missing. We got the visa today, no questions asked. But we may have just a had a nice case worker. My advice though to anyone applying for this visa is, take ALL documents, ...

Congrats Yarons mate, I'm so pleased for you. :-) I knew it was good news! Sorry to hear about your ceremony dillema. It's quite a long time to wait although the private one is very expensive to almost extortionate. Bet they only do one very rarely so that they can charge that much or anyone wantin...

Tim555, it does seem like you get 2 in 1 if through NCS as there are no important supporting docs to send back - otherwise it's separate. I did ring my council register office last week and they didn't have my certificate yet. That was before I knew that I got approval. No letter came yesterday so ...

2 in 1 letter is a Approval letter from UKBA to applicant where they advise two things:

1) Application approval confirmation
2) Advise to contact local council for citizenship ceremony.
