ILR - Returning of passport

Post by charliegal » Tue Jul 28, 2009 11:37 am

Hi, my husband is currently applying for ILR. I am meant to be travelling to New York on 26th August; however my husband needs to send my passport off with his application. Does anyone know whether they will send my passport back once they have recieved the documents, or will they return it when they have decided whether to give my husband ILR? Do you think I will need to cancel my trip :( ?

Thank you in advance

They will return it with all the other documents once your husband's application has been processed. This could take anything from 1 to 6 months.

Are you sure that your passport needs to be sent? Can you send a copy plus other proof of citizenship, eg your birth certificate?

It's not mandatory for a British citizen to have a passport, in the first place.
