Hi ffion, thanks for your reply.ffion wrote:Registration Certificate (RC) and document certifying permanent residence (DCPR) are two different documents - which one did you submit with your application? You need DCPR for the British Citizenship application.
I submitted RC instead of DCPR. You are right, I was researching this further on the Internet and Citizens Advice Bureau turns out I applied for RC thinking that i'm applying for DCPR before submitting Citizenship application.
If I would sent my Citizenship all by myself to home office then fair enough - I am the only one to blame but I sent it using NCS and correct me if I'm wrong but I strongly believe that they should have picked up on this missing DCPR and not allowt me to send my Citizenship application to HO.
Have I got any chance to claim my Citizenship application fee from NCS as they failed to provide their services correctly? Their "what happens next" leaflet states that if the application will be unsuccessful due to lack of necessary documents then they will refund the appointment fee but there's nothing about the AN citizenship fee. Has anyone had the same scenario?
