Hi All just wondering if this applies you click thru and it goes to a page saying applying outside of the UK If you were born in the Philippines, or your parents are married or divorced and have links to the Philippines Check the documents you need to provide if you’re applying for a first UK Passport and either: you were born in the Philippines your parents are married or divorced and have links to the Philippines. Applying for a passport from outside the UK: applicants with links to the Philippines
Why would you/the applicant be applying from outside the UK, assuming it's part of the process to Citizenship? Is this maybe regarding a passport for a child of British/Filipino parents, currently in the PI? Can you Post the link that got you to this info?
No just normal application for my wife after her ceremony Don’t think a link will work as it’s related to a passport application you log into Attached
OK... So, starting from the web address in the screenshot - passport.service.gov.uk - I'm trying to replicate the page you Posted... Is your wife applying for a British passport FROM OUTSIDE the UK? Just checking, as from your reply it sounds like she has been granted ILR and the next step you are looking at is British Citizenship, then a British passport?
Hi UKDJ No correct she’s done FLRM ILR and Citizenship all approved and from UK Very confusing they make this I think it’s just the certificate plus the old passports required
Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes can help... TBH, if it was me helping my wife I would probably have been confused too!
It’s these sites they just make things so confusing they way they word it like the screenshot it’s says the below get a first UK passport if you were born in the , or your parents are married or divorced and have links to the Philippines well she of course was born in the Philippines and of course her parents were and married and still live there lol you go to the link and it says IF your applying outside the UK confusing!!!
Ifa is she in the UK? Has she got citizenship? If the answer to these 2 questions is yes then you are applying from inside the UK. The link you are looking at is for those who live outside the UK for whatever reason and want a British passport. By having ILR and citizenship you are allowed to live IN the UK
Agreed - If you choose the 'wrong' link to start your application it can lead you down a rabbit-hole!
Thanks all did the right link as it asks you if your applying from the UK which we are but resulting in the first pic I uploaded I will leave it as already sent certificate and passports see what happens
Passport received today Our journey is finally over was really quick I did mine too as a renewal and not heard anything yet only an update they have received the old one and now they go on strike lol So wife gets hers before mine lol
