Any way, as I said you can apply

So does it mean that even now if child is IC? just because the passport expires , he/she can not apply for new passport?!!!

So it was a holiday?

Hi,

We applied for my spouse. We have a asked to put slightly different name on the naturalization certificate.

e.g. Maryben John Smith to Mary John Smith. Do you think/know if this is a complicated change which could delay the application? Would we need a deed poll certi.?

Thanks,

Hi all, it seems that many of you are very experienced with the way that UKBA deals with naturalisation applications, so I really hope you can help me with my question here which I'm really puzzled about. In my British naturalisation application form, I have requested that a different name to be us...

NO, Use postal instead.

Why do you need to submit surrender certi. for visitor visa for India?!!! Its required to get OCI and they will take the original. They are two different things.

Even then you will need a very good reason to be outside UK (e.g. spouse's relocation outside uk due to job reason etc.)

No limit.

Their online system is the sh**test in the world given we are the IT nation of the world! Don't worry just print the form and explain this at IHC. You should be fine.

As I was expecting no news form IHC yet on the buggy online application form. We did went to the IHC. We just fill in the form using me as Indian citizen and got it printed. (as they would not entertain without the form!). The officer has noted down our circumstances and currently the application is...
