Hi, you need to fill up the ROD online form...this is the link https://www.gov.uk/visa-documents-returnedjellybean19 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 01, 2019 4:42 pmHi
I too applied via paperform UKM form and sent of documents, end of Dec 2018. Today I had my biometrics done. Am wondering when I can ask for documents back as would like my passport back asap. Or how soon they will be returned in my pre paid tracked/special delivery envelope i also sent to them
Thank you kmlenna for reply. My husband wants to have a mini break in Europe for my birthday present in March. So, it's driving him nuts me not having my passport lol - which isn't helping me with my stress levels them having all my documentskmlenna wrote: ↑Fri Feb 01, 2019 9:24 pmHi, you need to fill up the ROD online form...this is the link https://www.gov.uk/visa-documents-returnedjellybean19 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 01, 2019 4:42 pmHi

I did request for my passport on 25-01-19 and was sent it back to me on 31-01-19...if you need it urgently...you have to write and explain in the online form why you need it urgently because mostly it takes 10 working days or more to return the documents if it’s not urgently needed...
Just didn't want to ask to early and I'm hoping I can still travel on my usa passport too.Well in my case it’s urgent, I did request my passport back for the purpose of taking a new English language qualification test, which is requested by my case worker. Aside from filling up the ROD online form I did write a letter to my case worker also and got my passport back after 4 working days.
You should be aware that the members posting about requesting documents back are in the UK and applied for citizenship using form AN after 5 years residence and holding permanent residence (ILR/PR).jellybean19 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 01, 2019 4:42 pmHi

Thanks ,I'm in the UK too. I've told hubby this before re waiting for documents. The advisor on the phone lines say can request back after 6-8 weeks, but I don't want to mess up application. Yes, my route is different (UKM) I've lived here since 5 months old and was on my mum's passport way back then. I've got ILR stamps in all my previous passports and have been travelling with current and previous passport with ILR. Hubby said we'd go after ceremony takes place( once I've been accepted) - but I'm not sure even with USA passport I'd be ok to travel, then apply to british passport after we returned, as I've read once again I'd have to send in my current usa passport along with certificate ?CR001 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 02, 2019 9:57 amYou should be aware that the members posting about requesting documents back are in the UK and applied for citizenship using form AN after 5 years residence and holding permanent residence (ILR/PR).jellybean19 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 01, 2019 4:42 pmHi

You have applied under a very different route, with different rules, laws and requirements and it might not be possible to get your documents back unless it is an exceptional and compassionate reason, ie not a holiday.
You should keep your questions in the UKM specific topic to avoid confusion.jellybean19 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 02, 2019 11:47 amThanks ,I'm in the UK too.

You are free to travel once you get your documents back. Not sure why you think you will have an issue.
Correct. When you apply for the passport, you must send your original US passport and certificate.
Sorry, re UKM topic. I suffer with anxiety and this is pushing it to another level right now, even to lack of sleep. So, trying to ask questions with aim to reducing it.
