Thanks for reply. Yes the savings are in three current accounts and if accumulated then I believe it can even jump the required threshold deficit by using the formula of (saving - £16000/2.5) but the real confusion is that the balance fluctuate everyday due to spending but not much fluctuate then in...

I have said many times even again saying that if some one used pre January form and got approval on that form and is neither given in writing by HO nor in writing by council then this penalty cannot be enforceable rather the non-pilot scheme users should impose penalty on HO that why they are unoffi...

My query has silenced the experts, board explorer and chit chatters too

It's HO laziness that they don't change their approval letter templates by adding this information. Although it's rule now but due to HO laziness it will not be enforceable so easy. If HO not tell in writing to those applied before January version of form and council not say in writing then how can ...

This pilot scheme is a prime example that HO is much capable of processing applications quickly but looks like they are intentionally delaying the outcome of the normal applications in order to frustrate them. This so called pilot scheme is charging the same standard fee for nationality application...

Hi all, For the last 1-2 months we all are observing that all those applicants who applied jointly (naturalization + passport) application are getting unofficially priority treatment. The word unofficially is a correct word to be used here because any act/process without official guidelines is indee...

Few of mine familiar ones too used Wandsworth who were given the pilot scheme option but they didn't use but it was before when no one of us knows that HO will unofficially process faster the pilot scheme users than others.

That instruction should be written in approval letter or council after ceremony must give a leaflet about this rule along with naturalization certificate otherwise it will not fully enforceable because surfing home office website to find & read this instruction is personal voluntary effort. In s...

That's not good news
If someone after ceremony has to travel then as per link need to apply right of abode certificate which consume 6 months and cannot use brp for travel
