Is it possible to have a premium ILR (settlement) interview at a public enquiry office, then go to our local council's nationality checking service the next day with the ILR confirmation letter? Waiting for the biometric ID card would take at least two weeks, and we would much rather get it sorted ASAP so my wife can go on a business trip.
The UKBA is refusing to take calls about naturalisation due to budget cuts, our letter on the subject has vanished without a trace, the council (who would be actually checking the documents) are refusing to answer the question, and our lawyer says it isn't mentioned in the immigration rules and she doesn't know the answer.
Thanks for any replies
