Yes, you can travel.

You are not applying for a visa or ILR -naturalisation is not an immigration application, yes we answer this at least twice a week.

Dear Mods and Experts,

I almost got all the documents ready to submit my application , just a few quick clarifications before i submit

1) One of my referees ( non british ) is my accountant and he will be my first referee, so for the question How does the referee know the applicant? shall i mention accountant

2) Referee 2 ( British ) is my client at University, his position is Regional Manager and he will be my 2nd referee, so for the question How does the referee know the applicant? shall i mention friend or client

3) For both the referees , can i attach my my photo, fill the form, scan and send to my referees through email to get it signed and send back to me, is it accepted ??

4) SA302 my account just registered and I will submit for one year and it will be the latest, is it ok ?

5) I'm not on salary and I have not paid any personal tax, do i need to mention anything about it or just SA302 is sufficient?



Apart from the above i will submit the below documents

Full scan of all pages of my passport for proof of residence
LIUK Test
Expired IELTS

Is there anything more I need to do?

Thank you in advance.

It doesn't matter too much, just make sure you select the most appropriate council for the ceremony as that can't be changed. You can inform the HO of your address change with a cover letter (if you will move before attending the biometrics appointment) or with an email.
