Looking to make my naturalisation application this week. I am a non-EU resident with ILR.
On the documents tab, it mentions that in order to prove I have been in the UK for 5 years I need to send my original passport:
Does anyone know if you do need to send your passport (in original) when sending evidence documents?"If you are a Non-EEA National, you need to include your passport to prove you have lived in the UK for the relevant 3- or 5-year period.
If you do not have your passport or it was not stamped when you entered the UK, you need to include letters (for example, from your employer or government department) as proof."
I have a trip planned in a month's time, so if they need my current passport then I will need to postpone my application. My partner, who is an EU citizen has just had her application approved but did not need to send any originals, just had them checked at the Sopra Steria center. Is this the case with non-EU applicants?
Any clarification is much appreciated.
thanks,
Adam
