Place of Birth

Hi all - I am about to apply for naturalisation (ILR+1y).

I have previously received my wokr visas and ILR using Israeli Travel Document with place of Birth = "Jerusalem, Israel".

When i get my passport I don't want it to say Israel but would prefer it has either 'Jerusalem' only or 'Jerusalem, Palestinian Occupied Territories'... which is a more correct description.

When I apply using the online form, can I put Palestinian Occupied Territories for the country instead of Israel even though this wont match my existing BRP?


----- altenratively, can i apply with a different passport than the one used to obtain my BRP? (ie Israeli Travel Document vs Jordanian passport)...


Thanks

It says city only the British passports. For example I was born in Johannesburg South Africa and my British passport says only Johannesburg.

Using a different passport doesn't change where you were born!!

Thanks for your reply. Believe it or not for Palestinians it does... our situation is very complicated =]

Good to know that it doesnt say the country, so if i proceed to apply with Israel as the country, it will never appear on the passport anyway. Thank you!
