Hello All,
I have applied for my British Citizenship application on 31-March-2014 and my decision letter was despatched from HO on 19-March-2014 (confirmed from HO customer centre) and I am expecting the letter before the end of this week. If all goes well, I am planning to attend a private/group ceremony before the end of this month (confirmed from my council that there are some places left for the ceremony during the last week).
Now, I would have to travel to India by 4th or 5th June 2014 and unfortunately I would have to stay there for the next 6-8 months time due to my family circumstance (will have to look after my mother-in-law).
I would like to get some feedback on applying for British passport from India. Here is the link that I referred:
https://www.gov.uk/overseas-passports/y ... dult/india
1. From the above link, it looks like it takes around 16 weeks to process the passport application from India. I would be travelling from UK to India using my Indian PP under the 90 day 'grace period'. Since, the passport application time line from India would exceed my grace period, would my stay in India cause any problem ?
2. Assuming I receive my passport after 16 weeks time (which is 4 months), what would happen if I surrender my PP in India ?
3. Would there be any problem when I try to apply for my OCI from India (after exceeding my 90 day grace period) ?
Any help on this is really appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
