Applying for Naturalization ? covering letter ?

Post by runie80 » Thu Mar 20, 2014 11:18 am

Hi Everyone.

I am thinking of writing a covering letter to accompany my Naturalization application.
Listening all the dates in chronological order.

just wanted to ask if anyone did that ? or will the NCS allow that letter to go with the application ?

I am set for my NCS appointment in April.

Anyone else sending documents in APRIL ?

The form asks you to list your absences in the form. What would be the purpose of the cover letter?

I wrote a long detailed covering letter when I was applying and took my application to NCS and they took it out and said no need of covering letter or anything extra. The more you add, the more Home office will take time so keep it nice and simple.

Thanks Jamboo & Dadageer.

I was thinking that I explain them that last year we had a baby and my wife's maternity leave situation.
and her intention to go back to work (in next 2 months as self employed)

Also to inform them that i have missed 2 dream jobs in last month (after successful interview) just because the employer would not accept the expired sticker in my passport
as my lawful residence and legal right to work.

but I think I just submit the application with Normal documents and then if they have any questions i will submit the required info.
I dont wanna end up in situation where i lose money, waste time , get rejected and apply for EEA 4....

No offence here but everything you said is irrelevant to the application.
