Re: Passport application: birth certificate requirement

I originally entered the UK with the passport that's now expired. That one has my entry stamp and tier 2 visa. I then transitioned to ILR and have been traveling with my new US passport + BRP.

To confirm, should I just submit the current US passport? Is there any harm in submitting both to be safe?

Re: Passport application: birth certificate requirement

Thank you! One more quick question. I have an expired US passport that includes my entry stamp for when I arrived in the UK on my tier 2 visa. I also have a current, valid US passport. Should I mail in both? Or just the current one?

Passport application: birth certificate requirement

Hi there - I'm applying for my first British passport after having received my naturalization certification. I was born in the US and I can't figure out if I'll need to send in my birth certificate as part of the passport application. Can anyone confirm? From "Guidance for paper passport applic...

Re: When is application considered "received"?

I've just applied and made the payment and it's taken me to the UKVCAS site to book my biometrics appointment (which I need to do by 12 Nov 2020). There don't seem to be any available, but it also sounds like I may be able to do this via the app once I get access. Should I just wait until I get an i...

Re: When is application considered "received"?

I haven't submitted anything yet, so I could still go the route of applying via ILR only. Is that a less risky approach than the marriage route? The only difference I found was 5 year vs 3 year of travel history.

Re: When is application considered "received"?

Thank you so much for the quick reply! We only got married last weekend which happened to align with my 1 year of ILR :) I'm applying via the marriage route since it's less work listing travel for the past 3 years instead of 5!

I'll make sure to submit and pay before the 13th.

Thanks again.

When is application considered "received"?

Hi there - I'm preparing to submit my UK naturalisation application (via 1 year of ILR + married to British citizen) but haven't had a chance to get my references to sign the referee document (I won't see them until next weekend). What happens after I submit my payment through the online tool? Will ...
