Citizenship ceremony happening later - current pp renewal
Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2016 11:42 am
Hello,
I am hoping some learned members might be able to help me here. We recently got our citizenship app approved, and have booked ceremony with the local authority. The thing is, they seem to be quite booked out and the date we got is about 4 weeks out. It so happens that the current Indian passport held by one of us expires the day the citizenship ceremony is to take place. We did JCAP, so, hopefully our new passports should arrive within a week or two of the ceremony.
In this context, do we really need to renew the Indian passport that's about to expire? We are not planning to travel out of UK in the next 6 months or so anyway. Any thoughts/ advice please?
