I would only put their names if you remember - but nothing more
they use the information for ID at the interview (eg: ask you whats your grandad name etc)

But that all really

I have to say i am very impressed (so far) by the online application process Applied online on 1st March, sent signed declaration, pix, countersigner and docs on 2nd March Yesterday (7march) got back the docs - now awaiting for interview letter anyone knows how long that takes to arrive? :arrow: I ...

Interview booked for 16 March
had to book for freagging Reading as there was no availability for London until 24th March

Anyways - nearly there

I have to say i am very impressed (so far) by the online application process
Applied online on 1st March, sent signed declaration, pix, countersigner and docs on 2nd March
Yesterday (7march) got back the docs - now awaiting for interview letter

anyone knows how long that takes to arrive?

Also - had anyone received their passport in 2016 and keen to post some pix (of course not the page with their info)
Just curios to see if they are now releasing the new design (revealed in Nov) or is still the old one
also is the validity of the passport 10y or 5 y?


thanks

i was also puzzled by the amount of info they ask about parent and grandparents i mean if you naturalise (like in my case) what does it matter when my grandparents were born and when they got married etc I only filled in the names of my grandfathers as i found the rest of the information to be unnec...

Same like NCS appointment but the Case worker will interview the applicant, check the ...

What is going on? Has no one from Sept applicants received any approvals this week??
Is HO on holiday (again?) or busy fast tracking Dec/Jan apps?

I think you are missing my point: Immigrants pay more taxes - everyone pays same amount for each tax they pay - but some people (eg: immigrants) pay more taxes, Brits may pay 5-6 taxes, an immigrant with same earning levels may pay 7-8 taxes Hence the difference in taxation Ok .... got you.... more...

Just an update really: Submitted a Reconsideration Application on 13/04/2015. 9 and a half months later - still waiting... So stop winging everyone and just wait. There is nothing we can do anyway. why did they refused you in the first place and what was the reconsideration based on? Thats a lot i ...

Recent immigrants to Britain are better educated, pay more taxes and draw less state benefits than native Britons. The findings, taken from official government data, came in a heavyweight report into the fiscal consequences of immigration to the UK, published on Monday by the Centre for Research an...

But most importantly - we pay in taxes: as immigrants some of us pay 2x if not 3x more taxes than our fellow British fellows, Why do we pay 2 times or 3 times more than the other British citizens I think its all same income tax or council tax (depending on the slab of course) for British Citizens o...

london2tim Trust me when I tell you I have been in the position where you are right now, and not once, but multiple times over the course of last 10 years. I have read your entire post and I don't think I have a single point I don't agree with but like I said its unfortunate. HO need to sort out th...

seagul & Arsal385 I feel your frustration but I have been through the postal process for SET(LR) where some folks who applied weeks after me got it before me. HO has always been unpredictable when it comes to the order in which they approve. Unfortunate but what can we do Perhaps the pilot sche...

Has anyone who has applied in September 2015 for naturalization on the basis of 10 years long residency, received approval yet? Nop it looks like September apps are the slowest to process - they are well ahead with approving OCT, NOV and even DEC it really baffles me how they decide which apps they...

A Biometrics question. My husband has already has it, as he had it done for ILR. Will he have to do it again? I'm hoping not as it only hold up the application and we don't have a place near us that does it. From the UKVI AN Guide If you have previously enrolled your biometric details and been issu...

Thank you - I can't see that there would be any problems with the application. I've been here over 15 years and provided accurate data give or take a few dates where I was out of the UK in the past 5 years. For most of the times I was out of UK I have precise dates for others I have dates +/- a few...
