Hi All,

I was looking on Internet but can't find the answer I'm looking for.

When you're approved and the council receives your certificate,
is your approval date printed on it or is it the date of your ceremony that is printed on it?

if it's ceremony date, how do the council print it on there?

When we applied using NCS, the lady rang up HO and asked this question.

They said the first day you touch UK soil is the date you put in.

my partner had 19 month overstay gap which we declared for spouse visa and ILR.
we took the risk.

He was approved 2 weeks ago but took 5 months and a week.

I don't know if they're more lenient for spouse based applications... no idea.

Getting stuff sorted will help you feel better too and you will have more confidence when going for naturalisation

Good Luck!

The Home Office don't notify applicants whether a credit check has been made when applying for BC. What checks are made by the HO (non criminal)? Credit checks are now being piloted for some nationality applications, if you have numerous debts that have defaulted and/or CCJs and/or Insolvency issue...

For the record my husband wasn't credit checked! Obviously he was checked for ccj and bankruptcy via insolvency records but not actually credit checked. They do a proper credit check when you apply for uk passport and use it for when you attend for identity interview. However I'm aware they were pil...
