The advantage with NCS is that you get to keep ALL your original documents AND they check the form for you.

The biggest advantage is that they offer the JCAP service where you apply for citizenship and the passport at the same time. You cannot do this is you apply by post on your own.

10th January is not really that far away is it.

Don't send any forms to the UKBA. They ceased to exist in March 2013, due to being 'unfit for purpose'.

You won't gain much time by submitting the applications by post instead of waiting for the appointment on the 10th January as:

1. Guaranteed postal delivery before Christmas ended to today.

2. The Home Office staff are about to take leave until the 4th January.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

hi

i am finding it difficult to find a 1st referee which matches criteria in MN1 Guidacnce Notes page 25

" one referee should be a professional who has engaged with the child in a professional capacity, such as teacher, health visitor, social worker or minister of religion".

i have one referee who is CIVIL SERVANT, and one of my friend is a Medical Doctor .

would it be fine if i get that done from my above mentioned friends ?

Regards
