[quote="wolex"][quote="InUkOnHsmp"]Hi Wolex,
This is absolute rubbish. My wife's case was exactly the same, however I did not send any deed poll with naturalisation application, so her naturalisation certificate was in her old name.
We applied for passport in her new name, attached a deed poll signed by a friend, and her passport came through in her new name.
No questions asked, I am sure this person you are talking to is making a mistake, this is common procedure.

It's complete lack of common sense!that's why I'm trying to find out on here may be someone has been through this before.
I've taken it up though,I've asked them to show me the law or policy guideline where it is stated that Deed Poll is invalid if done before naturalisation or the woman in question is just doing what she likes.
How can you do a check with a new name and then tell me you gonna put old name?except it's all lies that they do checks.The payment was even taken out with the new name,I just don't get what the fuss is about but I will wait to hear what they'll say.
Even if they check from home office and it's old name,wouldn't it be old name too for someone with recent Deed Poll?[/quote]
You may want to direct them to the following guidance on names
