Mistake on Naturalisation Certificate

Post by Aligul » Wed Jan 02, 2013 4:12 pm

Hi

Does anyone have an idea how long UKBA gonna take to correct an error.
They printed wrong country of birth. I have sent it back for correction and still waiting.

Further, what documents will I have to send for first british passport if I use Check & send service.

Many Thanks

This link might be useful to you. I suggest you get it changed ASAP.

Hi,
the ceremony is next month, i only received the approval letter from HO., The full name is correct, it is only the name at birth has mistake.,
do i need to send the request for correction now or after my ceremony, it is written on approval letter that if u have any mistakes on certificate send it after attending the ceremony?
does the naturalisation certificate also include name at birth etc, details?.
thanks again,
Raj.

Hi Aligul,

Can you please tell me where you sent the certificate, and if you have received your corrected certificate? The city of birth has been spelled incorrectly and I need it corrected.

Thanks,
La

Attend your ceremony and afterwards return the certificate for amendments. The UKBA address can be found on the flip side of your approval letter.

Yes, as stated in your approval letter, the details on there will appear on your certificate.
