Re: US Citizen and UK resident - DUAL Citizenship Questions

ABC2014, Get his citizenship before rules change. It opens up a larger playground of opportunities. He can pick and choose whereever he wants to work and if he plans to travel the world it will be an advantage to have both. Many gates will open up.

Re: February 2014 - Naturalisation Application Timeline

For folks on this thread, I would suggest we write to shadow home secretory, Yvette Cooper, since current h/o ( Mrs May ) is ignoring us. I think what we should do is - put up a joint email and gather everyone's real name, address then send it to Mrs Cooper ( I think a collection of scanned acknowl...
