Re: MN1 Sec 3(1) query

... We have made an appointment with NCS to check our documents but we just didn't want to go and be told that we made a mistake and lose our money. Please help. Ta By having the foresight to apply via NCS you would only risk the (relatively lower) NCS fee/s in first place. Do you mean family has r...

Re: MN1 Sec 3(1) query

If they were legally adopted under the Hague Convention guidelines, by a British citizen, then I think that would make the British automatically. Will have a look and see what I can find. As an aside, how old are they, where is the biological father, do the children have ILR? *The adoption is not u...

Re: Applying Naturalization and Passport at same time

I still haven't had confirmation of approval or otherwise on my application. I am getting paranoid each time I see someone from the DEC 2015 timeline get their Approval!!!

Is it just me? I applied using the pilot scheme too with Gloucestershire County Council- Cheltenham. :cry:

Re: Applying Naturalization and Passport at same time

I am super jealous watching Fielddrive's timelime. I applied a week before you (02/12/15)! So I thought I was going to get the Approval first...but never mind. Congrats guys.


I applied through NCS Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.


Hope it comes soon. :)

Happy waiting everyone. :D

Re: Combined applications for AN & Passport (Pilot project-H

Re: Applying Naturalization and Passport at same time

This is an interesting subject as I recently applied for Naturalisation plus passport using the NCS Cheltenham. I applied on the 2/12/15 and money for Naturalisation and passport was taken out on the 4/12/15 (for naturalisation) then on the 8/12/15 (passport fees).

So waiting to see what happens! :)
