Passport Application

Post by asianboy81 » Thu Nov 21, 2019 1:56 am

Is it possible to apply for British Passport while naturalisation application is pending? Or do i have to wait for naturalisation application to be approved? Someone told naturalisation and passport application can made at the same time but don't know about the accuracy of the statement. Any relevant explanation will be hogly appreciated.

No. You are only British once you are approved AND have attended your ceremony.

You have to wait until you have attended your ceremony. Just getting an approval letter doesn't make you British yet.

It was possible until November last year if applying through NCS. It is No longer possible.
