British Citizenship UKM from NY USA
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2025 4:28 pm
Greetings all,
Thanks in advance for your help.
I have searched this forum and cannot find the answers I need.
I have applied for my British Citizenship through descent. My Mother is a British Citizen, and I was born before 1983. I have used form UKM. I applied online, uploaded documents including, My Mothers exp passport, My mothers Birth cert from England, My Mothers Marriage Cert, My passport, My Birth Cert, My 2 Referee Sheets, A bank statement, and Electric Bill. I went to my biometrics appt yesterday. They checked my passport, took my prints, picture and stamped my paperwork. I received another instruction set from them on what to do next. It first says to go to this url and mail all the supporting documents to the listed address. I am using VFS global. At the very bottom of the instructions state this : UK Nationality applicants: DO NOT mail your passport or any documents to the VFS in NY after enrolling you in biometrics. You will be notified of the decision on your application for UK Nationality once assessment is completed.
So my question is, in my situation do I or do I not have to mail all of these documents?Thanks
