I eventually got my passport and guess what it was misspelled :evil: I ended up registering my marriage in Poland, getting Polish passport in my married name and then getting British passport. Now I have to resend everything because of HMPO inability to read application form and transferring details...
Ok I'm facing application for the passport. I have ceremony early next month and I'm planning to apply for passport after 19th Jan. Then I will have my foreign passport in my married name. This is where the fun begins, ho lost my marriage certificate, I have emails proving it etc. My naturalisation ...
kamran7 that is their standard response so I wish I didn't bother contacting them at all. Lack of consistency and self-conflicting informations are being provided by customer care staff. As a result of their "advice" my marriage certificate is now officially lost. I know it is difficult bu...
Dear All The case isn't mine but of a close family member. She came with her husband to the UK in Nov 2000 on a student visa and continued renewing their student visa until May 2004 (all the time being in the UK legally), when they applied for WRS. In Oct 2006 their daughter was born. And there is m...

I don't think that studying and working will have such an impact on the application. I did my uni degree while working and registered with WRS as a worker. It could be in my case that didn't mattered as I had PR while studying. There must be something else. I would suggest Ilona to talk to immigrati...
Monia Congratulations!!!!!! We have been approved the same day, best of luck. Jeff I had contacted HO on few occasions regarding change of my surname after I got married. As a consequence of that my marriage certificate got lost. Personally I wouldn't bother to contact their call centre as they are ...

I'm not discriminating anyone, I'm just airing my opinion. The whole application is discrimatory, that's the whole point of the application is to choose who case worker believe is worthy to become BC. How come September applicants getting their approval and applicants with criminal record (ie more d...
It's really outrageous that people with criminal record and who applied after me have got their approval! Everyone is equal but some are more equal than others.
I can actually count that I'm over 6 months. Nothing in the post today. I phoned HO obviously standard procedure wait two weeks etc etc etc. Tomorrow email is going to my MP.
It appears that EU applicants are worked on slower rate, I'm Europe straight forward case and still waiting, one week and it will be 6 months since I've applied.
it might sound like stupid question, how did you contact home office to get your documents returned? did you used their website or did you use an email? Many thanks
