Wrong council

Post by Mahbubbd » Sat Jul 08, 2023 12:34 am

Hi All
I recently applied for the British naturalisation .
By mistake I chose wrong council for oath.

For example: I live and used address in application is lambert council but I chose to take oath to Wandsworth council.

Do you think it will be a problem? Or
Can I do something about it to correct ?.

Any advices will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Don't think it matters where you do the ceremony as long as you do it within allowed timescales. I am also choosing a different council than the one whose jurisdiction I live in.

No issue, and in your case it’s just next door.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.

Correcting or changing could turn out to be a drawn out process. If near enough like the example you gave, just attend it on the right date at the wrong council you chose.
