Is it mandatory to apply through local NSC?
Posted: Sun Feb 23, 2014 4:25 pm
Hi,
I am due to apply for British citizenship for myself and my family in the next few weeks.
Am I OK to choose any Nationality Checking Service (NCS) or is it mandatory to apply through the one that is part of my local authority (local council)? I am thinking of applying through a NSC that has definitely been reported to be efficient (in terms of timelines, document handling etc) rather than my local one, which a lot of applicants have complaints about but am not sure if I am allowed to choose.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Utopia
