Re: British Passport- Newport

After 2 weeks from posting, my special delivery with my supporting documents is due for delivery at HMPO Newport today.

Do you think I could phone up and request it to be expedited, given the circumstances?

Re: British Passport- Newport

The plot thickens, as the tracking of my special delivery on the way to Newport says “ Your item is due to leave London Central MC to go to Heathrow Worldwide DC. ” This sounds wrong to me... Are you sure you printed the correct label? Also, does your parcel has a return address? If not, best to co...

Re: British Passport- Newport

With Special Delivery you only get a second scan when your item reaches the RM Mail Centre where it is dispatched from further on for example Jubilee MC. If it was collected on 9th, most likely it went out on 10th and would have delivered today but RM delayed your item. My documents were delayed by...

Re: British Passport- Newport

I've sent the supporting documentation by Royal Mail Special Delivery. It was collected from my home in London 2 days ago. Unfortunately the Royal Mail tracking shows nothing more than "Item collected". No other sign of it being scanned as it goes through the network. I am massively conce...

Passport supporting docs: Special Delivery

I sent my naturalisation certificate and passport to the Passport Office via Special Delivery. The tracking only shows the item was collected (from my house) but it hasn't been delivered yet and there is no tracking update. I called Royal Mail and they said that, a part from COVID delays, deliveries...

Re: **** COVID19 Biometrics appointments and UKVCAS ***** (Discuss here ONLY)

Is it actually possible to reschedule an appointment? When I go to manage services there is only an option to cancel.

Re: When should I submit the application?

In the case of a EU citizen like me who doesn't have any stamps to prove first and subsequent entries to the UK, should I still upload all pages of my passport?

Re: When should I submit the application?

'Third country' means non EU citizen. Probably being dumb here, but how can you apply via the EU Settlement scheme if you’re not a EU citizen? Is this something different from applying after having been granted Settled Status? You can a apply as a spouse etc of EU citizen even if you are form non E...

Re: When should I submit the application?

Ok - I am confused now. I've submitted the application just now. The UKVCAS website says: Please note if you are applying as a third country national as part of the EU Settlement Scheme, you must upload all of your supporting documents on the UKVI online application system and not on the UKVCAS webs...

Re: **** COVID19 Biometrics appointments and UKVCAS ***** (Discuss here ONLY)

Just to confirm, following up on some help kindly given in another thread by CULLINAN, as someone who's never had any biometric document issued in the UK and no previous relationship with UKVCAS, I will certainly have to book an appointment, won't I?

Re: When should I submit the application?

By the way, are you suggesting that I wait until I have the physical reference forms completed and scanned before I apply?

It’s unclear to me at which stage I’m asked to upload the documentation.

Re: When should I submit the application?

UKVI has a new policy now where the identity SOME applicants where they do NOT have to attend UKVCAS for biometrics and can reuse their previous biometrics. Having said that, even if you are chosen to attend biometrics, you have to book an appointment within 2 months but current situation may delay...

When should I submit the application?

My online application is ready to be submitted. I have all the supporting documentation I need, but I still need to get the two reference forms signed. I am waiting for some passport photos to be delivered. I will probably be out of the country for 3 weeks from the beginning of August. So, realistic...

Re: Supporting documentation for naturalisation with Settled Status

Probably a silly question, but... I have P60s for (tax year to April) 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.These should cover all the 5 years, is that right? After all 2016 means from April 2015 to April 2016.

Re: Supporting documentation for naturalisation with Settled Status

As I have settled status, I can't get a PRC, so I can just add a note explaining that and perhaps attach my settled status confirmation letter. Attach Settled Status confirmation with ref number. I am struggling with this point as well, I have settled status as well, I was about to submit my applic...
