Did you not enclose postal order when you sent your passport for surrender? Since you have already submitted I think it is better to go and pay there.londonlad wrote:Hi gidoc,gidoc wrote:When youre submitting your application in person, it gives you an option for an appointment, then you can pay online.
I submitted my application via post. So do you know how i can pay online?
You need to apply for passport. Should take 2 weeks. Then apply for Surrender Certificate as you need to input UK passport no on the surrender application.hillybilly wrote:Applying for my UK born 2 year old. I got my ILR in July. Got the kid's UK citizenship certificate last week.
Will I need to get the British passport before surrendering Indian passport?
Or can I kick off both these processes at the same time, independent of each other?
What is 'self attest'?
And what about OCI? Which of these steps could be taken at the same time to save time and money? I live in east London and can skip postal applications.
Thanks.
Go to the nearest post office which offers check and send service. You can find it on royal mail website. But if my memory serves right, u need 2 passport photos, naturalization cert, current passport, passport form from post office. You need 2 references for ur child, all explained on the form. There is thread in the section British citizenship for all this....hillybilly wrote:Oops! Couldn't find a relevant thread. But if there is an active one around here somewhere, administrators/moderators please feel free to move this post.
Background: I was on old style 5yr work-permit (Jul 2006-2011). Got my ILR in July. Applying for British passport for my UK born 2 year old. Got the kid's UK citizenship certificate last week.
I've been looking up official websites (first British passport for a child) but the list of required documents is obviously not very relevant to people like you and I.
Can anyone who has been through this process please help with this knowledge? I could give the IPS Passport Adviceline a call to find out but from my experience of calling such offices, and also hearing discouraging stories from others on the forum, I am convinced that I will receive incorrect and incomplete information from them.
