British passport application and PCN from local court

[Tommy W]

Good everyone,

Im thinking to apply for British passport may be after few months. But yesterday I received a penalty from local council court-it was for driving in Bus lane at the end of 2018, but I didn't receive the tickets/ any latter because I moved to another address. Today i payed everything and for last 3 years i haven't got any other tickets.

My questions are - do you think that this will reflect on my application or should I wait 3 more year before to apply..

I will appreciate any advice

anyone can make a mistake by either not reading the timing sign or not identifying bus lane. Declare it in the application but one PCN does ot mean bad character.

You can report the PCN, it does not affect your application. But, you do not have to! It only asks for Fixed Penalty Notices (FPN) and they are issued by police, not the council.

And you are not applying for a British passport but for the British citizenship. It comes with a lot of rights and duties, well beyond the travel document which is the passport.
