The wife had her Leave To Stay stamp from the immigration put in her new passport last year for free. Now in order to get citizenship she had to renew it again to ensure the middle name was the same.

They now charge about £150 for this and say they take upto 3 month, it was 3 weeks last year!!

As we need it to go on holiday to Singapore in January they told us we could have an interview in Liverpool on 30th Nov, and they charge £250 for this 'personal' service!! Getting as bad as the rip-off Filipino officials in this country.
