[wasiter]

Hi All,

My wife is applying for her Citizenship (got her ILR in 2011 Sep)..She has taken the Life In the UK test..but, we don't have a copy of that..

In the citizenship application form what should i tick?

1 - I met the knowledge of language and life requirement to qualify for settlement
2 - I have successfully completed an approved ESOL with citizenship course and attach my certificate and confirmation
letter from the college.
3 - I have passed the Life in the UK test and attach confirmation. The test number is
4 - I wish to claim exemption (physical and/or mental illness may not lead automatically to exemption. You should provide
grounds on page 13. Your application may fail and the fee retained if insufficient reasons for exemption are provided).

Thanks

[Amber]

The home office has all the details on the system.

Can i ring homeoffice and try & get the Life in the UK test number?

Iam planning to go via NCS service by Lewisham and looking @ their website it says...

******What you need to bring to your appointment***********
< original evidence of knowledge of life in the United Kingdom>

We lost the original evdidence...therefore, what can we do?

You do not need it if she used the LIUK certificate for her ILR.

Yes, she did used. So, what if Lewisham council asked us?

[vinny]

She has taken the Life In the UK test..but, we don't have a copy of that..

Where is it?

Where is it?

We don't have a copy of it...Therefore, we have submitted the original and we don't have the test number in hand.

Is that an issue?

In the application form there is an option
Option 1 - I met the knowledge of language and life requirement to qualify for settlement..

Should i tick this?

Thanks

[Amber]

If the council ask for it, tell them to ring the Home Office and they will tell them it's not required as you met KOLL for ILR.

[vinny]

Sorry, I didn't see that you had lost it. As Amber said, if you used it for ILR, then the Home Office should have a record of it. Tick Option 1 - I met the knowledge of language and life requirement to qualify for settlement.

If the council ask for it, tell them to ring the Home Office and they will tell them it's not required as you met KOLL for ILR.

Thanks anyway.

The reason i put this question in the forum is because - i want to know did this happen to anyone else?

[Amber]

Hi All,

Wife is submitting the application tomorrow...Just wondering
is it mandatory that we have to submit the Passport as a EVIDENCE of Identity. She also has Provisional Driving License. Can we submit Provisional license.

The reason i was asking this question is because - what if we need passport urgently for any immediate travel?

Also, if i submit the passport and ask it back - does that mean my application is withdrawn? In that case, what happens to the application form fee?

Could someone kindly clarify please?

Thanks

Are you using NCS or sending it directly?

There is the option of applying through NCS (Nationality Checking Service) at various councils where they check, photocopy and give you back any document you provide including your passport/driving licence. Then they send in your application to UKBA. You should apply through it if you want your documents or passport back.

I don't know if you can request them to return the passport without it affecting the application.

Thanks...Iam applying through NCS Lewisham. Let me check withthem

Alright. Then they will return the original documents or passport/driving licence to you.

If you used driving licence to sit for the life in the UK test, then you must carry it along with the passport to NCS. The passport is needed to check/confirm absences and to also verify identity.

Yes, NCS Lewisham just confirmed that they will take a photocopy and retirn it back to you!
