Re: If we have No referee means no passport?

I am not sure why people struggle to get referee even after staying in UK for 5 years or more. Anyone spending so much time in UK should be able get one for citizenship/passport requirement.

Hello, I am in process of OCI application. Do we need to submit/send original British passport as part of the application process? If yes, how long it takes to get passport back?

Re: How to Retrain BRP card before applying for British passport

Mind your language CR001. Yes, i attended ceremony in 12th as posted by me in timeline channel. I didn’t return BRP and received email on 18th to pay fine.

You can consider this nonsense because it is not paid by you. I wish you are made to pay such high fines so that you will realise how it feels !!

Hi, I am in process of my citizenship application. I wanted to know if i can have my distant brother-in-law as a referee? Rule says referee can not be applicant’s relative but I am not sure what is the definition of ‘relative’?
