Application AN + MN1

[annieslist1]

Preparing to apply for naturalisation and have few queries hope someone can help!
I got ILR Oct 2011 - So qualify 5yrs WP + 1yrs ILR
Family of 4 - Husband wife & two children under 18 (born outside UK)
No NCS at my local council nearest is 40 miles away and they do not have dates available till 17th Sep 2013 - so postal is the only option.
My questions are:
1. Once the application is sent & acknowledged by HO and before approval what if I have to make a journey, any option to get the passports? will this put the process on hold?
2. Do they only send originals along with approval letter?
3. Two adult joint applications and 2 children (AN + MN1) do I have to send separate payment forms for each or one will do for all 4 applications? so how do I go about doing that?

Have you considered getting certified copies of your passports to send?

Thank you for the reply. How do I do that?

Sending original documents
You must send the original documents or certified copies.

A certified copy is one that includes a signed statement by the issuing authority or by a solicitor or notary. The certifier must confirm that it is an accurate copy of the original document. Each document must be certified, clearly detailing the certifier's name, their signature and the organisation that they represent. If a certifier's details cannot be verified, we will reject the document.

Any help much appreciated.

If all applications are sent together, one payment slip will do and UKBA takes payment for all 4 applications. It will cost you £2728 for two AN application joint and 2 MN1 Joint.
