Travel between submitting online application and biometrics.

[Manmeetkg29]

Hi,

I am applying for my British Citizenship/naturalization and I have just submitted online application/ paid online today (18th May). I am now supposed to book an appointment but I am now very confused as I will be travelling to India on 14th June and coming back on the 13th July. Can you please help me following questions:
1) Can I travel outside the UK (to India) between now and my biometrics appointment (I can book an appointment until 19th July).
2) Will I need to submit my BRP at the Biometrics appointment
3) If I travel before my biometrics appointment, will i need to let the UKVCAS know of the dates i have travelled outside the UK (obviously i have already submitted the application online without my upcoming travel dates).
Very anxious so your answers will be very helpful.

Thanks!

You are free to travel after a biometric appointment. Not sure what you are finding confusing.

1) Can I travel outside the UK (to India) between now and my biometrics appointment (I can book an appointment until 19th July).

You can, but I would suggest attend your biometric appointment as soon as you can. That is when your applications starts being processed. What if there is an issue and you cannot get back in time?

2) Will I need to submit my BRP at the Biometrics appointment

NO originals are submitted. This is answered multiple times every single week.

3) If I travel before my biometrics appointment, will i need to let the UKVCAS know of the dates i have travelled outside the UK (obviously i have already submitted the application online without my upcoming travel dates).

NO!!!

Very anxious so your answers will be very helpful.

You are overthinking and being paranoid!

You should book the appointment as soon as possible. You can then book your travel as you see fit, you won't need to declare this trip.
