I realised after submitting my naturalisation documents and attending biometrics that I mistakenly attached referee form that were signed by my references, have my picture on them, but did not have my name on them (a reckless mistake - I know). I sent an email to citizenship email address, explained the mistake and attached the signed forms with my name on them. I haven’t heard anything back. My bio was on the 18th of March.
Will this be a massive issue? NO - and they don't normally acknowledge receipt, a frequent query here.
Will they see the email I sent and take into account the correct forms? First of all you uploaded signed forms which are part of your application. They will see your email, and take note of what you send.
Is it a problem if my name is typed and not written in pen? NO!
Has anyone experienced something similar, please? Not personally, but I noticed odd mistakes in my application, after I was approved. Note that you will not be penalised/refused for minor mistakes. If you comply with the statutory requirements there's no issue.
Any advice would be greatly appreciate.We appreciate this is an very important application and expensive as well of course. Easy to say, but I would relax and be prepared to wait for your approval. It can take up to 6 months (processing target) sometimes longer but many times faster than that. They won't contact you with updates, unless they contact you for more information.
