Hi, My friend applied for Naturalisation in November. Her both Biometric letter was sent to her previous address. She only found out by chance as she met her previous landlord in a supermarket. . Was that mistake from home office due to your friend not information about change of new address or hom...

It's all self made superstition that naturalization & passport application together make the process more quickly because ukba, council where ceremony takes and passport office all three are different entities although they are interconnected. Even I will not suggest new pilot scheme because it...

The joint citizenship and passport applicants seem to be getting their approvals very quickly. Yes, they do appear be, based on the latest timeline updates on the forum. The first one in the November timeline appears to have only taken a month from the time biometrics were submitted. Will be intere...

Happy new year. I have a suggestion for home office that why they not introduce such method where applicant pay online which allow them to pocket the applicant money more quickly which always their desire and by this way they can reduce the timeline of process by 1-1.5 months. 2ndly they must introd...

I emailed same query to one of ncs council who given that reply: :D I believe the NCS manager in question is a frequent visitor of this forum... take her name out :lol: What you think that it means 21 days deadline is relaxed and is not important but only important thing is ceremony in 90 days.

I emailed same query to one of ncs council who given that reply: Dear ............... Thank you for your email. You're supposed to call your local council to book within 21 days, but you need to actually do the ceremony within 3 months. If you take longer than 21 days to contact your authority, noth...

@fielddrive Me too not seen any official literature where 21 days deadline to book the ceremony is written rather everywhere its mentioned that it's compulsory to attend ceremony within 90 days. Even chapter 6 section 6.11.22 does not state anywhere the 21 days rather only mention 90 days and yes my...

Is there any law/discretion/loophole which extend the deadline of 21 days when the applicant is needed to book naturalization ceremony in circumstances when he is on holidays abroad/lost post of approval letter??

fielddrive wrote:That's exactly what they did during my NCS, they checked both (UK degree+ILR > 2013)

Thanxs! How about photograph, is it the same passport sized like in ILR application? Is it one need and if passport size then why the box on form is very bigger when you glue it there?

A new question that if someone has UK master degree and same was shown previously when got ILR then on naturalization form section of English language can the both question be selected that one relating to holding UK degree and second the requirements being met after 28th October, 2013.
Thanks

hi again all,
Is there any law/discretion/loophole which extend the deadline of 21 days when the applicant is needed to book naturalization ceremony in circumstances when he is on holidays abroad/lost post of approval letter??

No to the LIUK (they might give you a copy of the LIUK certificate though) why they not give back original LIUK certificate :o :shock: :o :shock: 2ndly if somebody has UK achieved master degree then will naric/pbs print out will still need? if not then will degree certificate and transcript will be...

Hi fieldrive, Your timeline is excellent. Does this Wandsworth ncs give all original documents returned on same day of appointment and are they professional in their service? Should the applicant bring photocopies too of the required documents?? It is what it is. Noone can claim to do anything that...

UPDATE Eligibility criteria: 10 years + ILR Language criteria met: UK Degree Method of application: Wandsworth NCS plus Passport Date of application: 07/12/2015 Payment method: Credit Card Date of receipt by UKBA: 08/12/2015 Date of acknowledgement: 16/12/2015 (Dated 11/12/2015) Date money gone off...

Simple formula is that whatever date you got ILR is actually included in those 12 months calculation. For example if you got ILR on 11/01/2015 then while counting 12 months 11 January will be included and then eventually you will reach next year 10th January finally when 12 months complete. So any d...

It is a very easy perhaps mathematics question. If you received ILR on 11/01/2015 then you will complete the required 12 months on 10/01/2016. And on 11/01/2016 it will be 12 months + 1 day which is absolutely fine.

So please guys what should I do, plz don't ridicule me if I repeat as I need final advise now. Actually almost on ncs appointment I am moving new address where I will live only during naturalization application then passport then travel abroad for sometimes. So I cannot change my bank address to my ...

So you mean that write old address at payment slip and new address on Q#1.16. By this way the payment will go smoothly and all correspondence will come at new address instead old address because HO follows application form address??

Actually I am just moving to new place until the naturalization application process time then will leave again and that's why I won't want to change bank address to new home address. But during ILR application my payment went through even the debit card was registered at different address, now can I...

Too much thanks & sorry for repetitive query as I am highly puzzled. In other words, as long as the sufficient funds in account and give correct debit card details then address (old/new) won't matter on payment slip. Because last time during ILR my debit card was registered at different address ...

Sorry I didn't get you. In above situation what should I do:
1. Put new address at Q#1.16 & old address on payment slip?
Or
2. Put new address at Q1.16 & new address at payment slip?

Does old/new address matter when ukba is deducting fee??

Thanks for reply. But actually I am physically moving almost same day or next of NCS appointment. So please tell me that if I put old address at payment slip and new address at Q#1.16 then will it be alright? Will the caseworker follow my address mentioned on Q#1.16 or the old address written on pay...

I am extremely sorry for asking everyday questions but you people really give honest brother like advise. So I have a question that if I just moved to a new address 2 days before of my NCS appointment then should I write it at Q#1.16 ???. But on payment slip can I still use my old address where my d...

You need to be aware that you will receive correspondence from the home office in between the time you submit your application and when you receive a decision from them on your application. I.e. Acknowledgement letter, biometric enrolment request letter (& possibly other requests for informatio...
