I was naturalized as a British citizen 4 months ago and had my British passport in July 2013. I travelled abroad a month ago and came back to the UK after a month yesterday. At the Stansted airport I was told there is some issues with my passport, I was stopped for 15 minute by the UKBA Officer for more checks to be done.it wasn't obly me, another guy who was British since April 2013 was stopped too. After checks I was allowed to enter the country when I asked the officer about the cause, he said I have been refused for fiance vusa once and that is why I was doubled check.i can't believe that was the reason because that was long time ago, and after that I came to this country on spouse visa and after that had ILR.One of the guy who was stopped by them said this is because our passports are new and they have not got the record so they are checking the passport.anyone experienced the same trouble first time entering uk after naturalization?
Thanks

Instance 1 : my uncle was travelling back from pakistan they stopped him there claiming u have fake passport. they called BHC & they immediately sent somebody to verify that fhe passport is genuine which is was he was allowed to travel on

instance 2 : Friend of my arrived on his 1st British passport 1st time he was held at UK Border Control for 20 minutes as they were going through his previous "travel file" & marrying that to his new passport after a short wait he was let in

dont worry they got to do what they got to do to protect UK borders.

Thanks

it is nothing to do with your current passport ; i think it's for everyone. i was refused student visa 10 years ago but still they ask me why i was refused and they always hold me for 5/10 min. i am used to it so i really don't care
