UK Home Office Baiting Us?
Posted: Fri Dec 15, 2023 1:09 pm
Serious question.
My husband who is Palestinian received an email from the address: home.office.atlas@notifications.service.gov.uk
We are midway through his UK citizenship being hopefully assessed and accepted, but this email just doesn't sit right with me.
First there is the misspelling of 'confirmation' as 'conformation' twice in what is meant to be an official government email.
Then the more pertinent part:
He was born in Jerusalem, and this email specifically changes what we said on the application to 'Jerusalem, Israel' rather than Jerusalem, Occupied Palestine, and is asking us if this is correct. This has never been corrected in our previous three spouse/ILR applications.
If we don't correct them now, then they have actively made the application incorrect by changing place of birth to Jerusalem, Israel. However, if we correct them to say Palestine I feel like there may very well be a person with a biased opinion at the other end of the email, who may in turn say we are incorrect.
What would you do? Would you correct them or accept the change to Israel for the sake of application, so that we can just move on? Feels like we're treading along a thin tightrope right now...
