Hi there,
I am a bit confused... Can I use the NCS service for 3 applications for naturalisation, 2 applications for registration and 5 applications for passports at the same appointment? Will this confuse the Home Office if we do this. Do we lose any of our documents or will these all be returned as they have been considered as sighted. If we go via the NCS pathway and then wish to travel post application but prior to being granted citizenship and passports, can we do this?
Silly questions, but I find the whole process quite confusing...

OK. Thanks for that.
No/yes to the document question. Can you clarify what original documents they NCS need to send off?
This forum has been so helpful. Thanks everyone.

The NCS won't send any original documents. They will take copies and return the originals to you during the appointment.

You may lose ownership of the LITUK document (and not see it again).

That is fantastic. So they check all the documents, passports and BRP's and send off photocopies and we keep the originals. They check and send off the application and then all we have to do is wait, and as we have our passports and BRP's, if I need to travel for work then I can.
Thanks Noajthan and Casa.

I think I can live without that... I'll just make sure to take a copy....

NCS will give you a copy and send the original off. If your application is unsuccessful, you will get the original back.
