Thanks VR.
You mean when filling the AN form we can specify where we want to have the ceremony. However i can't find any section on the AN form to specify this.

Yes I am paying £874- i assume this includes the ceremony fees.

Also is there anywhere where we can specify if we want our ceremony to be in a specific council rather than where we live.

Hi, 1) Do I leave section 6.5 (about spouse photocopies..) i.e not tick as I am applying alone. I believe section 6.7 need to be not ticked and crossed as I don't have any special circumstances. Please correct me if I am wrong. 2) Is this the correct fees form: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/site...

When you apply through NCS they photocopy all your docs including passport and return the originals to you there and then. Any manager of a vat registered company be a refe...
