Congratulation to your son - it worked out finally, and now for the passport! Thank you so much, yes, finally! I need to renew my expired passport :| , which I'm not looking forward to as I've never done it from France but I'll get that done before attempting his passport. He has his French nationa...

Hi, I have a similar application to yours and applied from abroad for my daughter, and I had to send all the documents by post. How were you advised about the biometrics appointment? I haven't had any acknowledgment of them receiving the documents (but I tracked that they were delivered). Thank you...

Hello All, I've received the below email from the home office. My son's application is under discretion of the home secretary 3(1), as he was adopted by us in France and we live here too. I know it's not the standard type of application but should i start worrying or is this email sent to most peop...

It's impossible to tell from the email that there's a problem with the application as such and what it might be. We see many reports from applicants with the same or similar wording. There is an assumption that UKVI are just late with processing the application - I don't recall any details reported...

Thanks for your encouragement. Ah I see, that's annoying but glad it worked out in the end. Yes, same here, the biometrics center we went to was also a contractor company and the lady was a bit huffy as to why we didn't have a passport and was surprised we'd sent it off to the UK. Makes you wonder i...

Hello again, I've just been on the TLS website, where i booked the appointment, and I can see this message: "Your application process has started on 4 Oct 2023 at 11:09. Some of the documents are missing or not compliant with the Mission's requirements." The lady who did the biometrics was...

thank you

Hello again, My son had his biometrics taken yesterday and the lady who took them said the only confirmation we would receive is an email saying the biometrics have been submitted. I haven't received the email yet, so I was wondering if they send emails out after all biometrics and how long I should...

Thank you for your help

Hello, we have my son's biometrics appointment in paris, for his child citizenship application, and I was wondering if we need to take anything with us? Nothing was mentioned when I made the application, and all supporting documents were posted to the UKVI Liverpool office. I'll take our ID for veri...

thanks for the info

Just another question if I may please?
I asked for my son's passport and my birth certificate to be returned to me asap. Is this something they can do before a decision is made? Do you know generally how long they take or when they return original documents please?
thank you once again

Thank you
