Naturalisation wrote:Naturalisation is a legal process by which someone with no automatic claim to British citizenship can become a British citizen and obtain the same rights and privileges as someone who was born a British citizen. You can normally apply for naturalisation as a British citizen if you have lived in the United Kingdom for 5 years or more, or are married to a British citizen and have lived in the United Kingdom for 3 years or more. See eligibility for naturalisation for full details of who can apply.
If you have the official copy from home office and if your spouse has no objections then you can apply. But technically speaking, your marriage is not sustaining and home office might withdraw the citizenship in the future if some one (for example, your spouse) complains.

Absolutely incorrect! The British spouse has not got to give permission or consent to their spouse becoming British. Accordingly there is no question of citizenship being withdrawn because of spouse objection.But technically speaking, your marriage is not sustaining and home office might withdraw the citizenship in the future if some one (for example, your spouse) complains.
Well, based on the above contradictory statements I presumed that your spouse is not aware of your success in getting the duplicate.bebe2011 wrote:cannot get a hold of the british passport or naturalisation certificate as it is out of the question now. my spouse won't give it to me
now i have however managed to obtain by requesting from the ukba, a duplicate of the naturalisation certificate
