On the surrender passport application form it asks for permanent address - should I put UK or India address?
Thanks

Do I have to book an appointment to surrender passport at London VFS or Birmingham VFS?

London is nearer to me.

According to this link http://www.cgibirmingham.org/page/display/25 VFS has shifted to Birmingham so I am not clear? Please could you help.

Many thanks

How do you book an appointment to take your documents to surrender the passport?

OR it can only be sent in the post?

Did you surrender your Indian passport by personally going to VFS and making a prior appointment or you sent it in the post? Which one is quicker, please?

I have submitted my passport application today through Post Office Check and Send.

I was told I may not be interviewed - is that correct?

If interviewed - would it be in your own town/city or nearest Home Office?

Thanks

Thank you for these helpful responses I do appreciate it

Please could you advise on the processing time for:
1. Surrendering Indian Passport
2. Obtaining six months Indian visa

Thank you.

The website is a bit confusing. Am I correct that I only need to send:
1. Citizenship certificate
2. Two identical photographs

No birth certificates or any other supporting document, right?

Which is the quickest and most feasible way of applying for passport as I have seen people are applying online or by post or using check and send service.

Many thanks

When should BRP card be returned:
- when AN application approval letter received or
- after the ceremony and receiving certificate

I have noticed some people have applied for British passport without hearing the outcome of their naturalisation application. How is that possible? Does it save time?

Many thanks for the helpful responses

I am quite confused. Do I need any documents about my parents?

Hello, I am expecting to hear about my Naturalisation application sometime soon. I have just started reading about British Passport application process. I was born and brought up in India before 1983 (both parents from India). Please could you let me know what supporting documents I will need to app...

Many thanks. A relief to hear this.

I submitted my application on 22 March via NCS and application was received on 22 March.

Since then I haven't heard at all and neither has the fee been deducted.

Should I be worried?

Yes by University in South east England

I have a PhD from UK and will be submitting my award certificate with the naturalisation application.
Do I also need a letter from UK NARIC to confirm that the qualification was taught in English?
On page 7 of AN form question 1.22 sGould I tick i or ii
Thank you

Many thanks for your helpful responses.

Do I have to surrender my Indian passports before or after I have applied for British naturalisation?

I am due to apply for naturalisation, two queries: 1. Should I be sending my ILR BRP card with the application? Will I still need fingerprints done again? 2. Five years legal residence is from when Tier 1 (G) was issued, which is now six years ago ie 2010 or it should be five years from now, which i...

I am filling in the AN form at the moment and not sure what to put in response to 'Date and place of first arrival in the uk).

I first arrived in 2004 on student visa, then changed to Tier 1 G in March 2010 and got ILR in March 2015.

Please could you kindly assist. Thank you.

I am applying in the week after 18 March. Is the fee going to change? If so then how much will it be?

Please could you let me know if the total fee for citizenship is £1005 or £1085?

Does £1005 include £80 ceremony fee?

Many thanks
