I came to UK as a student but later on my Pakistani passport lost and I didn’t report it to police because police didn’t register report about foreign lost passport. I claimed asylum without Passport ID and only photocopy given to home Office and home Office granted me Refugee status and UK Refugee travel document on my request. I got naturalisation with UK travel documents. Now I want to apply for first British passport and HMPO asking me for my country passport when I entered in the UK with entry stamp while I lost it. Please anyone can advice that if I submit Uk travel documents for first British passport and as I got Refugee status, will HMPO mention anything on observations page ie travel documents or Refugee status in my first British passport . I will Highly appreciated your advice.

I would not expect that there will be any endorsements regarding your prior status, you are a British citizen now.

I've successfully submitted my Travel Document instead of passport to HMPO. They did keep it though and tell me that it was 'policy' to retain them.

My passport has no observations and I wouldn't expect yours to have any either.
