Hi there,
Anyone knows how long does it take to receive the passport after you got the citizenship certificate? I have applied for citizenship together with passport application.

The BRP becomes void after attending your BC ceremony, similar to when a bank card is terminated.
Whether the IO at UK Border Control will accept this together with your BC certificate remains to be seen.

Hey JFriden,
I'm currently in this situation; what was the outcome for you?
(I now have Citizenship but my passport will not arrive before I have to travel...)
Thanks,
