Hi All, My wife applied for naturalisation on 7th march after completing the 5 year residence requirement on 6th March but she signed and dated the form on 29.02.16 I.e. Before the 5 year period. Do you think this could be a problem? Only asking as someone was returned the form to sign and re-date r...

Haha - you are funny.

Perfect. Thanks yes last Thursday rings a bell and thats what she mentioned as well

Thanks for sharing your detailed experience...mine was also quite similar.
So am I correct to assume that your new set of photos were not countersigned as well like mine?
Thanks

Many thanks for taking time to reply. It is slightly comforting to see someone else approved with a similar picture background.
I shall search the forum for counter signatory.
Thanks again
