Religious marriage and title for nationality application

Post by tabtab » Fri May 23, 2025 1:26 pm

Hello every one

I am applying for naturalization and clarification for some of the confusion.
I have ILR and raesdy for application .
I am religiuosly married to my husband not british marriage, on my name title can I select MRS instead MISS and also select married instead unmarried couple?
My pakistani passport mentions my husband name on it , also ILR HOME OFFICE Letter also mentions MRS as my title.
Further in future in passport application would be any issue ?
Just one more thing I am not working any issue?
Your help will really be great.

My pakistani passport mentions my husband name on it , also ILR HOME OFFICE Letter also mentions MRS as my title. Marriage cert would be required if you're applying for citizenship as the spouse of a Brit. If not, then continue as you've been.
Further in future in passport application would be any issue ? Nope, name just needs to match current passport.
Just one more thing I am not working any issue? Work not required for naturalization.
Your help will really be great.
No sin in failing, you just have to try and try again!

Employment is not a requirement for naturalisation. Your marriage is valid if recognised by your home country regardless whether it happened in Britain or not. so you can use Mrs.
All advice comes from personal research and experience and should not be regarded as professional opinion.

Hello
Thank you all for your resonpse.
Just a quick one . I will select MRS as title. Should I select married or umarried couple on application option because my marriage was not accepted by home office in past?
Appreciate your views on this.
THANKS

Why was it not accepted? Was it a religious marriage performed in the UK?

HI
Yes religious marriage in UK, but my leave to remain and ILR was granted through human rights.

Then you are considered unmarried. Your marriage is not recognised in the uk.
