Hi All,

I also have a question re: passport application following Naturalisation. My British citizenship certificate gives my current name, but I changed it years ago due to marriage, is it safest to send the marriage certificate as well?

Which name appears in your foreign passport?

Suggest read back through the thread below about difficulties in applying for BC passport with a different name in foreign passport and naturalisation cert.

My current passport matches the name on the naturalisation certificate, but not the previous one which I'm also sending.
You know what, I'll send the marriage cert as well, just in case ;)
Sending also proof of address as table A asks for it... gah! better safe than sorry right?!

Thanks CR001!

You don't need proof of address. Table A is NOT applicable to naturalised citizens applying for a passport.

Thank you very much for your help - last question as we have everything signed and countersigned.

There's a space on page 3, next to the countersignatory details, of a size of a passport photo. Should one photo go there? Or do I rather put two photos together (one signed) and attach to the front of the form?

And finally, I applied online, as a couple so it's just one form and consecutive page numbers (I'm 1-7, hubby is 8-14) - it seems obvious then that we can send them together right? ;)
