I am filling in the passport application form and I have a couple of questions, that I hope someone more experience can help me with:
- in section 3 it states that I must send all uncancelled passports, I have one at the moment so that is fine, but in the guide it states that they require the passport which I entered the UK with, I have it as well but it is an expired one - should I send both passports?
-section 4 - they need grandparents details, I will not be able to provide these, is that a problem?

Yes I see this in page 15. You need to send your old passport with which you entered the UK and the naturalisation certificate.

In section 4 they ask only the mother's & father's name and details including the marriage date. No where I see they ask for grandparents details.

In section 4 at the bottom it says: "If both parents named above were born after 31 December 1982 OR were born abroad we will also need the full name, town, country, date of birth and date of marriage of your grandparents".

I noticed that. Let us wait for answers from other members.

This is intended for those applying for BC through hereditary rights. If you don't know, simply write 'not known'.
Include your expired passport.
