Nearly everyone in this day and age has debts (mortgages, loans, finacne agreement, credit card etc).

As long as you dont have any CCJ's and/or are not insolvent you will be fine. From you post I read that you are servicing your debt payments so you should be fine.

As per above...most people have mortgages to be paid off and they are considered as debt too. Who don't have these days...good luck!

Hi Mates,
My Naturalization application was due in couple of weeks, But i have personal loan and still pending 6K+. But i never missed any payment. But i am not sure about what is CCJ. Could some one help me to find out how to check any CCJ's on my name.

My whole stay in UK was permanent employee only. Everything was straight forward, Even i called HMRC to find out any outstanding amounts on my name. Everything was clear. Let me know anything else i can verify before applying my application.

Thanks & Regards,
Suresh

You can check for CCJ's on Experian and other credit rating websites. The fact is if you don't know what it is you are unlikely to have one.

This is as google describes it - A County Court Judgment (CCJ) is a type of court order in England, Wales and Northern Ireland that may be registered against you if you fail to repay money you owe
