British Citizenship and British Passport

[navi85sin]

I have ILR for last 12 months and looking for applying for british citizenship.

I have couple of questions:

-> NCS is no more available?

-> I found this link where the online form can be submitted.
https://visas-immigration.service.gov.u ... onality-an

But according to above link, i have to submit passport and residence permit card. In that case i will not be able to leave the country till i get my passport back?

-> Can i apply for british citizenship and british passport all at once? Looks like i have to get british citizenship first and then later i have to apply for british passport?

Can someone please answers my questions.

Apply online and then use the new UKCVAS service to keep hold of your original documents. indefinite-leave-to-remain/online-appli ... 70084.html

No you cannot.

Correct, once you have attended your ceremony if your application is approved.

Thanks for the previous reply, i was reading other post as well.

I have question related to reference.
I have found the list of acceptance proffessionals.

But my question is that.

Do both the person have to be british?

Or the person with professional job title can be of any citizenship?

No.

The professional referee can be ANY nationality. The other referee must be British. BOTH referees must be over 25, of good character and have known you for 3 years.

Sorry for asking again.

I found two people who can reference to me.

One is Head of CRM and other is Product design Engnieer

Will head of CRM come in professional people list?

It is not listed but it is higher post than Manager.
