Hi bopc30, I sent my application to Peterborough. My citizenship certificate is under my married name btw.

Just wanted to add that my foreign passport has my married name in the observations.

I would like to share my experience about having married name in the BP with an uncancelled foreign passport in maiden name. I didn't have to cancel my foreign passport nor surrender my foreign citizenship. I just explained that it is not allowed by my country's law to change my name in my foreign p...

Thanks Mimimar26 for the suggestion. It will be time and money consuming to apply for the Home Office travel document.

I guess I will just apply for BP using my maiden name then change it to my married after one or two years later. I have waited for 6 years I can wait for a bit longer.

Hi guys, I'm going to apply for naturalisation in about 2 weeks. As many of you in this topic I would like to use my married name in the British passport. Cancelling my foreign passport or changing the name in my foreign passport is not an option for me. What I understand so far is that the HMPO wil...

Thx ninjaman.

Just so you know my PR was issued on 9 November. I called on 11/11 and was told my application was still in progress. I called again on 14/11 and was told my PR was sent on 12/11. I guess the application status will be under consideration until the PR is sent out.

I just received my PR today. Here is my timeline: EEA3 & EEA4 Applications Sent: 1/9/2014 Applications received by Durham HO: 2/9/2014 Application fees taken from credit card: 3/9/2014 Reference letter received for EEA3: 8/9/2014 dated 3/9/2014 Reference letter received for EEA4: 10/9/2014 dated 3/9...

Can I ask, what number did you call to check on your status?

I called 0300 123 2253

Just called the HO and was told that a decision was made on my application and docs were sent back to me on the 12th of November (I was about to ask for my passport back for travel but wanted to check my application progress first). They gave me a tracking number but the information is not yet avail...

I applied on Sept 1 and still waiting. When did you ask for your passport back? Did you include a pre paid special envelope? And did they use it to send your passport back?

I finally received my RC yesterday.I took exactly six months.only problem is that they never requested for me to return my passport(which I requested to travel in march 2010).So they just put the RC on a piece of paper.I would really prefer my Resident permit to be inside my passport instead of in ...

I have received a letter from HO asking me to return the passport to enable process of my application. They sent me a yellow paper to use it as a return address and it has got a ref number on it and a date which 8/09/10 anyone knows what that date means? It's the deadline for your passport to be re...

I don't know the details about applying for family permit -- but I think you can be still inside UK while your partner is applying -- but do prove that you are exercising treaty rights in the UK and your partner is joining you. I don't know if your partner is eligible to apply for this in France bu...

If you can work, I don't see why you cannot study.

I really don't know what to do now. Today my wife (EU citizen) called the Home Office regarding my EEA2 application. She was told that my passport was sent to the office in charge of, and I quote, "updating the passport". When my wife asked them if that meant that the RC was approved, the nice lady...

I applied for EEA4 on the 15th of March, completing 4 months now. On the 4th of July I requested my passport back by email and it seems my request was ignored. I called them 3 days ago and they didn't have any details of my request on their system, so they put a new request. And 3 days later I rece...
