Mistake on application - travel document

Hi All,

I have completed my citizenship application and declared I have a Travel Document issued by UK Home Office. Now I am scanning documents prior to my appointment and they have asked for Travel Document issued by my country of birth (DRC)

I’m worried my application will be failed because of this. How can I correct this?

Presumably you can’t get one from your home country. No issue you provided a valid travel document. You can write a note explaining this and upload under that heading. This is nothing new.

What route were you on till you got to the point of applying citizenship.
Don't understand how indicating you have a TD issued by UK turned to producing one from DRC.

I had Indefinite Leave to Remain.
FYI I was issued a convention 1951 travel document

OP likely has Refugee Settlement ILR.

The system needs to know if OP also has a passport issued by home country apart from the travel document.

No need to correct anything, explain in a cover letter what you have and what you don't according to your individual circumstances. The form tries a "one size fits all" approach that doesn't capture the nuance of certain situations.

I made a mistake at this one:

"Name in which you made the application"

I wrote the type of previous leaves that I applied to.
(asylum etc)
Apparently It has to be my name again.

Do I have to make a new application?? Is this a vital mistake?

Thanks

Explain in a cover letter. They won't refuse your application on a trivial mistake.
