Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

This is more a question for the moderators but if anyone has any insight please let me know. I did my NCS at Kensington & Chelsea as was more convenient than Wandsworth but Wandsworth is my local council. Will they (or are they supposed to) send the ceremony letter to your local council or the o...

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

This 6 months time period should be reduced to 3 month and more update on progress required.. So I emailed them and they said nothing about 6 months. I am hoping this serves to be a ki...

Re: HMPO questions Naturalisation Status withdraws passport application

Thank you for your response. I had to fly out on an emergency due to a family bereavement. I didn't want to fly back on my Indian passport as that incurs a huge fine. I was told by the HMPO call centre that there was a process to apply for the passport from India. Finally I was forced to fly back o...

I have had enough of this process HO is well within their rights to ask for the originals in order to assess a citizenship application. HO might request originals to verify certain t...
