"melyssa" It's too early for the payment to be taken I guess. I would wait for another 10 working days before getting worried if the payment is not taken. The only thing I remember was when the NCS representative made a phone call to the UKBA (according to her), she wrote the person's name...

Thank you for the quick reply.

Dear Seniors

I was wondering if someone got the 3 fixed penalty points after 1 month of the naturalisation application, what would be the status of that application?

Hi Kasaman

Any updates on your application and the passport you sent 2 months ago?

I am curious because I used the same NCS Newham to apply for my naturalisation application.

Please keep us updated.
