Re: Applying Naturalization and Passport at same time

I have received my approval letter today. (yayy!)

BUT in the letter, it says 'Please be aware that you need to apply directly through the passport office for a British passport'

I have to admit I am a little bit irritated to hear that ....I am going to call Passport Office tomorrow to enquire.

Re: Applying Naturalization and Passport at same time

I'm curious as to how/where you attempted to track your passport application? Was it on the HMPO website? If so I'm not sure if it would even be possible to track it on the website at this early stage, as it would in essence be kept on hold until such a time your AN application is approved. I haven...

Do you get a letter once app has been assigned to

Hello everyone,

Wondering if anyone who applies for citizenship gets a letter from the HO once it's been assigned to a caseworker or some people get it, some people don't?

Thanks

Re: Lost Life in teh UK test certificate for Naturalisation

I too lost the life in the UK test certificate. I passed it back in 2010 for my ILR application and since then I moved house and it got lost. What I did, I wrote a covering letter for this and the NCS lady said this is sufficient as even if you cannot provide the certificate, the HO will still have ...
