AN1 Questions - Please help

[maxflip50]

I am applying for BC

I hold ILR for more than a year and meet residency requirement, Life UK, English requirement

1. just want to confirm AN1 is correct form I need to fill in?

2. I wish to apply via NSC - am I correct that all my documents will be scanned and returned to me back on the day?

3. I will go abroad after NSC appointment for 6 months and will not have address in the UK during that time, so will HO contact me by email or by post for further communication ?

What about Biometrics during that time? How will I provide biometrics abroad ?

4. What is date of application receipt ? is it the date of NSC appointment or the date HO acknowledges by post after 1 month?

5. Referees - if I don’t have British passport holder friends, please give hints can I use for reference 1 and 2 ??

Many thanks in advance

1. just want to confirm AN1 is correct form I need to fill in? Yes it is

2. I wish to apply via NSC - am I correct that all my documents will be scanned and returned to me back on the day? Correct

3. I will go abroad after NSC appointment for 6 months and will not have address in the UK during that time, so will HO contact me by email or by post for further communication ? Yes, you will need to provide biometric info, and they could need additional information or evidence. Also I don't think it will look good if you are abroad for so long, as they ask where do you intend to live.

What about Biometrics during that time? How will I provide biometrics abroad ? You can apply from abroad indeed.Inform them if you're unable

4. What is date of application receipt ? is it the date of NSC appointment or the date HO acknowledges by post after 1 month? Not sure
5. Referees - if I don’t have British passport holder friends, please give hints can I use for reference 1 and 2 ?? One must be British, other might not be but must be professional


Many thanks in advance

HO communicates with your by postal service. You should either wait to travel for so long or apply for citizenship once you return. If there is no record of you in the UK, it might raise questions about the 'future intention' requirement you answer in the form.

What about Biometrics during that time? How will I provide biometrics abroad ?

Possible, but it will delay your application. You are required to submit them at a Post Office once you receive the letter.

4. What is date of application receipt ? is it the date of NSC appointment or the date HO acknowledges by post after 1 month?

Date of application is either the date of your NCS appointment OR the date of receipt plus 1 day if applying by post.

5. Referees - if I don’t have British passport holder friends, please give hints can I use for reference 1 and 2 ??

There is no option here, ONE of your referees must be a British passport holder and older than 25 and of good character.
