Yes you can. All the very best.

Hi

I was wondering if anyone has used the existing passport (in my case Indian passport) to travel outside the UK?
I read Indian passport can be used with a grace period of 3 months but while coming back to the UK will there be problems like travelling on ILR when already a British citizen?

Thanks to all the forum members who provided their valuable suggestions. Eligibility criteria: ILR + 18 months Method of application: NCS Date of application: 27/09/2013 Date of receipt by UKBA: 01/10/2013 Date of acknowledgement letter: 10/10/2013 Date of debit of fees: 11/10/2013 Date of approval:...

Thanks to all for all the help.

Me and my wife got the approval for naturalisation.
I will post the timelines in the thread for naturalisation timelines.

Thanks VInny.

I was wondering if I can put visiting relatives as special circumstances and mention the details. We have our home in the UK and she has met residential r...

She has ILR as I had applied along with my application for ILR.

In this case, even if the parents become British, it shouldnt be a problem isnt it?

Thanks wpilr_nov12.

Thanks a lot VR.

In fact he has got ILR and applied for naturalisation now.

Thanks Nathan for your reply.

No he is not.

I am finding it difficult to find a reference exactly as per the list from UKBA as my residence has moved every 1 year. So GPs/chemists all ruled out.

I am surprised that with an Engineering degree and working as a IT Consultant is not professional.
