Alot of people on here pay the extra fee for NCS. But it doesn't necessarily make it faster. I sent my app via post next day special delivery (~£7) and received the approval as fast as anyone else that paid the extra for NCS. I don't see the point of it unless they give you back your original passp...

the NCS officer asked me for my BRP, no harm bringing it. Just BRP, KOL cert, English cert and the application form. No need payment slip as the NCS office will use their own. You mean the guy at PO asked you for BRP? BRP is not required for passport. BRP can not prove your eligibility to obtain pa...

Student isnt a temporary visa as far as I know, however I can see your point in current environment with so many pressures on kick students out. His next visa was old five-year work permit then he got ILR and Naturalisation, if that is of any help. Ahh ok I should re-word it more clearly. What I me...

1) I have the same issue but to be safe I just selected the first box and provide the KOL certificate again. I even re-took an English test just to get a new certificate. I can't find any note that says the evidences don't have to be provided again if they were provided in the past. 2) This should ...

Dear seniors, I would like to offer my gratitude for the immense knowledge and information that the website provides to hundreds of users of this website. I have been one of them and I successfully applied for my ILR last year. Now, I am preparing to apply for Naturalization. I have few queries per...

Hi, Is it likely that the AN form will change before July 2015 as the exisiting AN form is June 2014...? Does it change every year? I've been told that for Naturalisation, you won't have to use the new form. Note, I have been unable to find a statement on UKBA that says to use the current form &quo...

People who have received the 6 month + letter, please at least share what your eligibility criteria is so that we'll all have an idea whom are more likely to be affected. Thanks.

Just out of interest, what's your eligibility criteria? Thanks.

so it seems that the trigger is always 'immigration history'. any suggestions as to what factors might have triggered this?

Hello,

According to the Guide, question 2.1 should list 'Enter the day you first arrived with a view to staying in the UK on a long-term basis'.

Here's my history: Working Holiday maker -> Tier 1 General -> ILR

Should I enter the date that I entered the UK as Tier 1 General?

Thanks.

Hi all,

I've drawn a personal cheque for my Naturalisation payment. Has anyone here had any issues with payment clearance using this method? I'm guessing it's more reliable to using debit card?

Cheers.

SJ1811, if you go ahead with your travel plan, on leaving Malaysia, where will you go next? Direct to the UK, or first to a neighbouring country such as Thailand? I an just wondering how you would prove at the Malaysian airport that you have the right to enter the UK? I know this is an old thread, ...

Great to know. Thanks guys.

Hi guys, I don't suppose anyone knows this, the current Form AN was issued in June 2014. When will a new version be issued to replace this? Any time in the near future? If and when this happens, would the current form instantly become invalid? That seems harsh for people who have paid in advance for...

Hi, two quick question please.... Q 1. English language: been using my degree cert so far till ILR - can I use the same as I got ILR after 29 Oct 2013 and there's an option in the form AN to choose that option. I have a speaking and listening qualification in English at B1 CEFR or higher, or an equ...

I was wondering if anyone can suggest me any council in BUCKS or London which offers most frequent naturalisation ceremonies.

I would appreciated if someone can guide me in right direction on this.

Regards,

Why? If you can't wait then ask for a private ceremony.

Exit is not tracked. BUT your passport will have entry stamp into another country, that will speak the truth. That's the reason why they require present passport. Don't lie not necessarily because if one returns to their home country their passports are most likely to be 'stamped' electronically i....

ohh by the way, 6.4 refers to my supporting documents like certificates?

Thanks again.

Just put a line across the option that doesn't apply.

ok sorry about that. Thank you very much.

Hello, I find the last set of questions unclear. 6.4 'I confirm that I have enclosed the appropriate documents'. Does this refer to the supporting documents like KOL and English language certificate, etc? Why does it say 'Delete if not applicable'? Similarly with 6.7. This doesn't apply to me so sho...

Hi all, What should I write under: 1.1: Pease give previous Immigration and Nationality Directorate or Border and Immigration Agency or UK Border Agency, or Home Office reference numbers My entry route was Tier - 1 General - > Tier 1 General Extension -> ILR Thanks very much Leave it blank Hi, I ta...
