Hi Folks
I'm not at this stage yet as I haven't received my naturalisation approval yet, but I would like to ask ahead a question. I would really appreciate experience, story, etc from our fellow member...
can I apply for british passport with an expired foreign passport as a proof of ID ? I hold 2 passport, one expired and the other one still valid. the expired one has not been cut at the edge.
I might be going for holiday, and I would like to hand my expired passport rather than my valid passport.
your experience is highly valuable
thanks in advance

The form as for applicants to send their current passport. If you have a holiday planned, apply for your British passport when you have returned and you can submit your current passport. There is no time frame within which you have to apply for a passport.
