Hello guys
hope you all are ok and good health - I’m after some little advice here I’m applying for my wife Naturalisation via the online form which has been done and system has redirected us to Sopra Steria UKVCAS website to book appointments but there are no appointments available in the whole of UK. Do you know why could that be? Any advice would be mostly appreciated.
My wife recently got ILR with a new BRP and all the relevant documents etc.
I’m worried that no appointment is coming up via their website and I don’t want to lose money I already paid for my wife Naturalisation application. Does anyone know what should I do?
Kind Regards
Jack

?Sopra centres will be closed from 24th and should re-open 29th December. Keep checking for appointments, your application will not be refused if there are no appointments available.

Try just after 00.10 am each night, when another day's appointments have been released into the system.

1. Please keep your questions in your own topic rather than tagging onto other members threads.
2. You have to book an appointment after submitting online. You should be directed to the website to book. You will not get "invited" to book.

Thank you for your reply. I thought you can do the Biometrics even after being granted Citizenship? Sorry I have been looking for some topics where the whole process of application is expained but I didnt find it.

No, you need to do biomterics BEFORE your application even starts being processed and considered.
Please continue your questions in your own topic you already have, link below.
