Citizenship
« on: June 02, 2017, 01:11:28 PM »
Finally, it's over!  My citizenship application approval arrived yesterday, and my ceremony is on 22/6.  It's been a few years coming (couldn't afford the application fees until this year), but it's finally done.  My wife and I are finally going to change our names via deed poll (double barrel), and then I'll apply for my passport before we head off to Norway and Romania in August. Phew....

Congrats! Only a few more weeks and you'll be free of anything visa-related in the UK!

Have a great time in Norway and Romania. They're total opposites of each other, but both are amazing! Are they part of the same trip?
