Travelling during naturalisation

Post by formatc2013 » Fri Sep 06, 2019 8:24 am

Hello
I am just about to submit my BC application through naturalisation. I am just about to move to a new town as well. When I am finished with them, I would like to travel around the EU for a while, possibly more than 3-4 months, than return to the UK. Is it okey to travel while waiting for my letter from HO?
Thanks

You are free to travel but remember that Ho can write to you to ask for original documents or additional information.

Ho write to by post so if no one is checking your mail, you could miss important letters.

Note also that if you get your approval, you have 21 days to book the ceremony and 90 days to attend. If you miss these, your cert gets sent back and you have to apply again and pay again.

So you need to decide what is more important based on your circumstances.

I am moving in with friends, who are going to be around all year, so they can open letters or notify me if something happens.

What address have you put in the form? Your ceremony council is based on the post code you put in the form as your current address.
