Type: British passport after Naturalisation
Method: Online
Application submitted: 8 November 2023
Documents posted: 8 November 2023
Approval Date: 21 November 2023
Passport Delivered: 23 November 2023
Supporting Documents returned: 23 November 2023

Extra comments:
- I did not send them my passport but instead I sent a certified copy of the photo page (by a lecturer) and a colour copy of all other pages, together with a letter that explained that I needed my passport because I am buying a house and I might need to show it to someone. However, I asked for discretion - the guidance was explicit in telling me to send them my EU passport
- I had paid the extra £5 for tracked delivery. I had included a rigid envelope for the naturalisation certificate's safe return... but they did not use it
