Thanks for the information Jambo. I didn't know that the workload would be spread between the 7 offices. However, that's not really the issue for me. I'm more worried about the fact that most people's passports are posted straight after the interview and yet I was told to re-submit my certificate of...
Hi there! I have a big dilemma.I can’t explain the situation. I had the interview on the 9th of Sept in London Victoria .Everything was ok…nothing special.On Thursday, 12th of Sept, at 9 am I got a phone call from someone from IPS Peterborough !!!( which is farrr from London) who requested me to sen...
I think you are referring to some CUKCs and that once such countries gained independence in 1962 they would lose their citizenship of the UK & Colonies status. You should seek professional advice for further information. South Africa became an independent state on 31/05/1961 - My partner's mom ...
Then the Mother could be British by descent and eligible for a British Passport. Her child (aged 27) could be eligible for a UK ancestry visa (click) OMG !I can't believe.I was fighting for my partner's right in the UK so much....Indeed knowledge is Power.However, I know that there is a rule, I can...
Was the Grandfather British otherwise than by descent (i.e. born in Wales or naturalised) and were the grandparents married? He was British - with British Passport - not oversees...British and yes, they were married. So, would it be possible? Thanks in advance for every little piece of help. Ukpass...

My partner is from South Africa, he was born there.He's got a family visa based on my EU rights.Mean time , I got my British ppt.Everything is ok with us but we were thinking of doing something for his brother or his mom who are still in S...
Hi there ! I've got a big dilemma as my EU passport is expired so that I am in that situation of not being able to produce a valid passport once I will apply for my first British Passport.However, I still have my EU Identity card which can be considered as a genuine proof of identity ....but on thei...

How long does it take to get a written answer from HO when you write them using that email (progressnationality ... mentioned above)?( an estimation ) Ukpass123 I email them about my wife's application progress (applied 3rd July) and found a reply (within 5 hours) that "no decision has yet bee...
Thank you Skyiswide for your nice words :). To be honest : I am from the EU area so I don't think my origin country can be considered of high risk... However, I was quite unlucky last year when I applied for my permanent residence as I had to wait exactly 6 months for it .I applied in January 2012 -...
Update :I went today to NCS - Richmond .A lady from there told me that indeed HO had experienced some difficulties in terms of giving a result to the July applicants.She also said that she expected to get the July results in batches (these were her words)...Also, according to her, yesterday they got...
