Re: naturalisation

Okey dokey, and thank you. I suppose as I’ve been vetted four times (two academic visas, further leave to remain, and ILR) and haven’t done anything wrong when here in the UK for the past 20 years, it should be OK.

Re: naturalisation

So, the border control officer kindly fixed the passport stamp, so that is sorted out. Apologies for being a pain, but I was reading the latest guidance for naturalisation today, and it says *Fixed penalty notices such as those issued under the coronavirus Regulations, or for traffic offences such a...

Re: naturalisation

Thank you. I can do that. I've also written the airport and explained what happened, and they got back to me straight away. It is a small airport with two gates, so not like Heathrow!

Re: naturalisation

Thanks so much for your help and speedy reply. Both references are British, so I think that is OK. Should I put a spreadsheet in of all my absenses from the UK for sixteen years since I was granted ILR, or just let the Home Office total the days up? I had one period I was gone for two months in 2017...

My ILR is the old paper kind in an expired American passport, and I never had to get BRP as I own my house and I worked for the same employer for many years, and then retired and don't travel internationally anymore due to healt...
