UK Citizenship: Withdrawn before biometrics & reapplied with Priority?
Has anyone withdrawn a UK naturalisation application before biometrics and reapplied with Priority?
Hi everyone, I’m wondering if anyone has been in this situation recently.
I submitted my British citizenship/naturalisation application but haven’t attended my biometrics appointment yet. Since the new citizenship Priority Service is now available, I’m considering withdrawing my existing application and submitting a fresh application using Priority.
Has anyone actually done this?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience, particularly:
Was the first application successfully withdrawn without any issues?
How long did the refund take?
Were you able to submit a new application immediately after withdrawing?
Did you have any issues with the second application because you had previously submitted and withdrawn one?
How quickly did you get the Priority decision after biometrics?
Any recent experiences would be really helpful, especially since the citizenship Priority Service is so new. Thank you! 🙏
