Citizenship ceremony - risk of not doing it within 3 months?

Hi, I have received my confirmation for British Citizenship today, though the letter was dated 26/4. That means I need to have my ceremony not later than 26/7/2018, right? The first appointment at the local council is 20/6, and I will be out of the country then until the end of the month. That leave...

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

Hi rents_78! I (along with my spouse) applied one week after you did and we went via the same method of online and JCAP. My passport fee came out almost a week after yours as well so it seems like our experiences are normal / matching. If you take a look at the March applicants who used the online ...

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

Ok thanks / given the money involved and the time spent organising it, I find it easy to stress out! The other day I called the HO only to ask if a letter had been sent (as I might have not received it - sharing my entrance hall with others and not having a private mailbox). The person was so impoli...

Re: General Discussion During Naturalisation Application Process

I applied online and then used the JCAP service to provide all documents. The citizenship fee payment was made online when I applied on 12/3 . The passport fee was charged on my card on 9/4 . I assumed they would only take the payment for the passport at the very end, after approving my citizenship ...

Re: British Citizenship - New Online Application

Thanks Abishek
The council asked that I go with 4 passport pictures (I'm also applying for the passport at the same time). Do you know if they mean 2 glued to the referee forms and 2 additional ones?

Re: British Citizenship - New Online Application

No! You can get the referee forms at the end of the application BEFORE the declaration and payment option. You will have to fill the application and reach till the end to get them. Where can I get the referee forms? I am at stage 5 out of 6, the one called “pay”. All I can seem to be able to do is ...

Re: British Citizenship - New Online Application

I have the same question, considering that you cannot get the signatures from the referees until you have the final form printed out and you cannot have the final form until you have paid, the sequence of events should be, I assume: - complete the online form and collect all documentation - when all...

Hi, My wife has dual citizenship British/other. Hence I am being asked to provide a marriage certificate. As we got married in Italy the certificate is in Italian. It doesn’t say anywhere as far as I could read, but I understand this would need to be translated by a professional translator (no idea ...

Re: British Citizenship - New Online Application

Furthermore, it says that I need to provide letters from my employers indicating my presence in the United Kingdom during the relevant period.
I thought that having a "permanent Residence" card was sufficient as I have already had to provide such documents at that time.
