I had the same situation and I left that section blank and attached a covering letter stating that I don't know their dates. It didn't affect my application. So I suggest you to attach a covering letter and you will be finejakedamuss wrote:Hi all i need some help. i am applying my wifes first passport.in section 4 they ask info about mother and father. she does not have the date of marriage of both parents is this section have to be filled in if yes will it affect her passport decision. any help pls

If your wife has not grasped the basics of the English language then, i'm sorry, she has no business applying to be British!jakedamuss wrote:can she ask for an interpreter if i cannot be with here at the interview?
How can she integrate in the British society if she cannot speak basic English? I am wondering what's the quality of life of some person living in the UK and not speaking English. That only leads to isolation, gettoisation and divisions in the society.jakedamuss wrote: can she ask for an interpreter if i cannot be with here at the interview?
Are you saying that as a British citizen, I am committing a dis-service to the nation by marrying someone who can’t speak fluent English? A person’s compatibility with a nation is more important than a person’s compatibility with his/her partner, is it? Should I separate from my life-partner just because you think that my partner can’t integrate with you?yanbo wrote:How can she integrate in the British society if she cannot speak basic English?

Totally agree with "FabioCapello". UK is a muticultural societyFabioCapello wrote: Are you saying that as a British citizen, I am committing a dis-service to the nation by marrying someone who can’t speak fluent English?

I think we should step outside and have a look at the versatility and diversity within nations abroad. There are nations where there are multiple languages spoken, and people who don’t speak the primary language continue to remain an integral part of that nation.
A person's compatibility, well being and indeed contribution to their community depends on their ability to communicate and express themselves in the local language. The OP's wife has lived in this country for at least 3 years, and if they have no learning difficulties, I see no excuse not to be confident speaking basic English.FabioCapello wrote:Are you saying that as a British citizen, I am committing a dis-service to the nation by marrying someone who can’t speak fluent English?

Wow i thought this thread was done. but obviously not can i ask why a person hasnt the right to be a BC because her english isnt as fluent as some narrow minded people assume. Her english speaking is quite good but no individual is perfect pls remember that before saying utter RUBBISHPlum70 wrote:If your wife has not grasped the basics of the English language then, i'm sorry, she has no business applying to be British!jakedamuss wrote:can she ask for an interpreter if i cannot be with here at the interview?
This is one of the man problems in this country: Individuals obtaining British nationality w/out being able to speak the basic language. Ludicrous! In other EU countries you have to be interviewed by the authorities first ( and more than once in some cases) before any application for citizenship is even considered.
