made a mistake in my Naturalisation

Post by Abdul443 » Wed Jan 24, 2024 5:48 pm

Hi, I have realised that I had made a mistake in my Naturalisation after submitting my biometrics and documents scanning,
application submitted on 07 JAN 2024
UKVCAS appointment was 16 Jan 2024

Mistake : Immigration Details:
Have you made any previous UK Immigration Applications in the UK or Abroad?

I mistook this as if I had ever made a naturalisation application before, so I answered "NO"
But it should have been YES as I have been living in the UK from last 5 years and had made UK immigrations Applications obviously , initial application from back home and then Visa extension and ILR applications from UK,
On 19th Jan 2024 I had sent an email and explained my mistake and had also sent all my previous Immigration Applications History in details to "NationalitySupportTeamFMT@homeoffice.gov.uk " and also Cc "Furthernationlityenquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk"
Also I had added my current applications details , like Name, DOB, UAN , passport no, Application Date, etc.

Could you please advise me what else I can do now?

Many thanks.

Interesting - naturalisation is NOT an immigration application .... not sure how you had the idea they are asking for prior naturalisation application. Generally people only apply once for British Citizenship.

Anyway, you have done the necessary - if they have any queries UKVI will contact you.

AND PLEASE, don't tag onto other members' posts - makes it difficult to moderate.

Just a small side note - Irish naturalization form explicitly asks for previous naturalization applications (if any); interesting to see UK one doesn't.
Not a qualified immigration adviser. Use links and references given to gain confirmation and/or extra information.

It doesn't ask about it - but it is possible to apply more than once, if for example your application is refused due to immigration issues and Good Character, UKVI may give you a time frame when you could apply again, say five or 10 years. Must be quite rare.

Nothing more you need to do, as long as you have sent them the correct details, you will have them added to your application.
