Hello,

Im now naturalized and it feels great but have not applied for passport yet.

The questions is, Am I now classed as a British citizen in the BIA systems even though I dont have the passport yet. Thanks.

You are British from the time you have the naturalization certificate. Passport is a travel / identity document require mainly if you travel.

Hey Congrats.

Got few Questions (I got my PR under HSMP/JR 2 weeks ago)

1. When / where can i apply for naturalization ?
2. I havent done the exam(live in the UK) yet ? Is there any Validity for this exam, if i sit for it in couple of days / weeks ?
3.Do i need again all P60s/Bank Statements/Payslips/Letter from Employeer to apply for naturalization ?
4.Can i travel outside of UK before applying naturalization ? Is there any timelimit of spending the days/weeks outside UK?


Would be great if you could reply to this ?

Thanks.
