Use the correct information. If you use German again then that will be considered as deception. If you are asked about it, you can explain the mistake. It shouldn't really cause an issue as your father's nationality can't change HO's decision as long he is not British. You've already been given one...

No good news for me.. I spoke to a very good lawyer the other day and he was very honest about everything, here what he explained about the letter we received, basically after all these disaster is going on in the middle east at the moment, some names specially those ones from the middle east or ha...

If they were in fear of their life, then they would go to the nearest safe country and apply for asylum there. UK is surrounded by safe countries and they would have traveled through them to illegally enter the UK. Just look at all the illegals in Calais, refusing to claim asylum in France as they ...

[...]and by all means, go and get advice from an immigration lawyer.

You have been given advice. You just choose to ignore it.

So a genuine asylum seeker who, in fear for his life, enters the UK illegally should be held to the same standards as someone who comes into the country with every intent of breaking immigration laws, simply because it's a nicer place to live? Also, as this has been covered a few times already, with...

I can't actually remember a question regarding my immigration history in the application form, either, but then UKBA knows all about it anyway and they will see that you are an overstayer. I do understand that it's a bit of a shock to hear that you may have to wait years before applying for British ...

It doesn't matter if you're the spouse of a British Citizen. It states clearly that if a person has not been compliant with the immigration requirements for the past 10 years, the application will be refused.

They're trying to clamp down on immigration.

I was a July applicant, July 21st to be exact. My approval date was Oct 20th, so it wouldn't show in there.

Hi ya, why r u sending them another application looo...you have money to waste ooohhhhh He was just asking a question because after almost 10 months he still hasn't received an answer yet. Not sure about you, but personally, I found the whole waiting time stressful, wondering if everything I had ha...

Hello, it is confusing if it's different on the ILR form. Anyway, it's actually the same, just put differently. The 2nd and 6th won't be counted towards your days of absence, so it would from the 3rd till the 5th (3 days). You still have to write down the dates of departure and arrival though. Hope ...

If you look at the recent posts here you'll see that the processing time at the moment is quite short. 2-3 weeks at most. Mine took 19 days, and that was with Christmas and New Years in between, plus I chose to go to the HM Passport Office near Victoria Station which takes a little longer to get app...

Hello everybody, I thought about making a new thread but it might get deleted. My application was sent in July 2014 and today I received my passport. Therefore, my Naturalisation process is finished. I found these forums after my application had been approved. However, I've been following these foru...

Hey Friday, Sure, no problem. Please keep in mind that I don't have the British passport yet, nor do I have a UK photo driving license. I still have my EU driving license. I will apply once I am back from a 10 day holiday starting next week. Here's a timeline British citizenship ceremony: November 1...

I completed the registration online and, like you, I wasn't asked for any other proof of identity other than National Insurance Number. I received a letter from my council requesting Documentary Evidence. According to the letter my online application was not successful because the information I prov...

Well, you can travel. I certainly did after sending my application in July and I was away for a month. However, it can be tricky if you're planning to go for 3-4 months, seeing that the general processing time of applications seems to be around 3 months. You should have someone taking care of your m...

Hey Marie, first of all grats I have my ceremony on the 17th as well. Just wanted to ask if it's in Hatfield by any chance

Thank you very much

Not a silly question at all. I haven't been able to get through to my solicitor. But anyway, I called the HO and the letter is on its way to me, not to the solicitor.

Hello there,

when I did my language test in June (B1 level), I was told exactly the same by my test provider. However, I couldn't find any official statement from the Home office that it's true and my solicitor wouldn't confirm that either, so I thought it a bit of a gamble to rely on it.

Hello there, and thank you for taking your time reading this. My application for the British citizenship went through an solicitor my husband and I hired. Last week on the 22nd I received an email from my solicitor with a letter attached from the HO (dated 20/10/2014) that my application had been su...

Hello suga, I'm so sorry that your wife's application has been denied. I was in the same predicament. My mum had a stroke in 2010 and needs full time care since then. The first 1.5 years I spent months away from the UK and couldn't apply for the citizenship due to the restrictions of 270 within the ...
