Thank you Alterhase - does that mean HMPO are not fixated on me sending my national passport and will accept CTD (current and expired)? It’s odd there is zero mention of this situation anywhere in the published guides…

Have you enrolled biometrics yet?

yes we did entoll biometrics

Hello admins, Apologies if this was asked before. When I applied for naturalisation around a month ago, I didn't have my TD (to show the entry and exist stamps) since it was with the home office for renewal. So when I applied I added a cover letter and explained the situation. Today, I finally ...

I sent my application for renewal and I got my supporting documents old travel document back after 3 months and Friday the 25th of June 21 I received an email that it was approved and on its way Timeline applied. 30/12/20. Sent documents 03/01/21. Approved 25.06.21 Still waiting for it to be ...

If she started to have the new name when married then the date of the marriage is what you should use.

It’s not going to cause any harm if you don’t get the reference number right. Use the case number from ILR and they should be able to find your actual reference number on their system.

Use your home office reference number which HO mentions usually on their letters to you. Not the case id.

Yes, mentioned the name before marriage and the date.

Thanks much Toni! I have submitted the application and used my flight booking emails to tell my exits and re-entries. I have also sent them the bio page of the travel document. Now I know they can verify this without having to see the stamps. That’s great help thank you!

Thank you - my main concern is not about having a valid or expired passport. My concern is I don't have a copy of the exit/entry stamps on my passports to show my absence from the uk. Would UKVI have my entry and exits on their system already? or do they need to see the stamps?

I know it’s a unique case... if anyone have any advise I will be thankful

Hello, I am non-EEA. We are applying for naturalisation (5 years limited leave + 12 month ILR) without valid passports. National passports expired while they are held by HO. Our expired Travel documents were sent to support a renewal application 7 months ago and haven't been sent back since. Hence ...

I applied for TD renewal in Dec 2020 and i am still waiting. They haven’t returned my supporting documents either (Expired Travel Document) Does anyone know if it’s normal not to return the supporting documents after that long? 7 months now! Thanks

Many thanks!

Thank you for confirming. Would the same still apply for a shareholder receiving dividends from the limited company (not a director and not on PAYE)? The shareholder is also in full time employment elsewhere and files self assessment every year... Would we need to submit self assessment statement of ...

Thank you Culinan! So just employment details in the form and tax office reference number (10 characters) and then they can look up the information online themselves correct?

Thank you - it’s odd they don’t ask for this in the documents section for neither regular employment nor limited company director... I read somewhere that all they want to see in terms of employment is that your tax is in order so was looking for the simplest way yo prove this without flooding them w ...

Hello all, I have checked the forms and seen several threads about this but couldn't get to a conclusive answer so appreciate your help I have recently started a permanent employment, however, I have been (and still is) a director of my limited company. I used to take salary (PAYE) and dividends via ...

Hi I was wondering what does it mean if Home office send you the old expired travel document but not the new one ? If anyone can help me with this I’ll much appreciate it They usually send your supporting documents in a separate mail... so I could mean that they are done with them and reached a d ...

Hello, As part of my entry clearance back in 2012 (Tire 2 General) I submitted an IELTS General test and got accepted. Since then we changed our status to a different route and got ILR last year. We were exempt from language requirements for ILR. Now we are preparing to apply for naturalisation, Can ...
