EU national applying for BC please help

Hello I just spoke to a woman from NCS trying to make an appointment and she claims that as an EU national I need to prove my residency in the UK since 2009 until now. I have the blue PR which I acquired in January 2012. I stopped working in May 2012 so I don't have any official document proving tha...

I also found this on Home Office website: "If you send your application form and application fee by post, the date of...

Don't worry. You can still use old version applications till 22 July 2013. As you posted your application before 1th July 2013 so are fine. Do you really think so? I'm so worried now. Think I won't be able to sleep until Monday when I'll be able to call Home Office. It says on the HO website that a...

I've been searching for information on this matter too and as far as I understand, your husband's RC won't be affected by you obtaining British Citizenship (assuming you keep your Polish nationality).
