    British Citizenship Approved!

    Hello all... I would like to say thank you to all the members in this forum who helped me a LOT from day 1 until the last step of my visa journey.
    Here is the timeline of my British Citizenship application:

    23 February 2017 - Application submitted (NCS Edinburgh)
    27 February 2017 - £1,200 fee was taken out from my account
    01 March 2017 - I received a letter from Home Office
    06 March 2017 - BRP enrolment, Edinburgh
    30 May 2017 - Invitation letter to book for a ceremony in our local council office
    07 June 2017 - British Citizenship Ceremony at St Boswell, Scottish Borders

    Now I'm looking up for information about applying British passport for me and my 16 month old baby.
    Thank you and have a good day.

    HAN

    congratulations! British passport is easy. Just get a form from the post offfice, get photo's, fill in the form and you can get basic checks done at the post office, pay the money and wait for them to send you the passports.

    You may want to consider dual citizenship in which case you will need to visit the Phil embassy, take an oath and get another Philippines passport. This bit is not as easy as the Brit passport and will take an all day visit.
