    Congratulations Ruks and Fam, the journey is finally over. My wife also got her citizenship approved on 5th August, the application was pretty straightforward and I did before you posted your citizenship videos.
    I ended up making some mistakes on the application lol, like forget to upload proof of living in the UK and the mandatory document I accidentally uploaded on another section. I was expecting them to email me back saying I need to provide them with those documents but after 2 months got the email saying the application has been approved, I was so relieved, I guess it was enough evidence what I provided and applying straight after getting her ILR helped like proof of living in the UK the last 5 years.
    I'm just happy that when travelling to Europe countries don't need a Schengen Visa anymore, it was a headache getting one. Lol
    I just want to thank you for taking the time making these videos and helping people like me save time and money from going to a solicitor that most likely charges you a bomb. I hope insha'Allah you and fam have a good happy married life. All the best.

      Aww thank you so much 💕!! Haha, it does not feel truly over until the passport has arrived and we put in a bangladeshi visa. Then I will finally feel like it's done 😅.
      Well done for doing it on your own. It's definitely much easier than the visa applications. I am suprised as well that they didn't email you but I'm glad they were still able to approve it. Yes, I used pretty much all the same letters that we used for ILR as they were still relevant. No more schengen visa 😌, no more visa fees...life is good!

    Amazing news once again, congratulations to you both and thank you for sharing your journey.
    I recently heard that you can book a private ceremony if you want your passport back faster or a joint ceremony but you may have to wait longer for availability. Did you have that option when you did your citizenship application?
    How long did it take to get a response and outcome?
    And where’s the first place you both plan on travelling too? Xx
    The world is now our oyster to explore without visa expenses 🤗🤗🥳🥳

    • @RuksanaAhmed
      @RuksanaAhmed  9 днів тому +1

      Hey, thank you! Yes you can book a private ceremony, I think they are on the weekends and cost more money so we decided to go for a group ceremony which there were plenty of. We heard back from our application after a month and were able to book our ceremony.
      Haha, we have travelled to some places (before kids) but yes, with a visa so it'll be nice to finally be able to book and just go without that stress. We are planning a family get away to a resort sometime this year. Perhaps Turkey/Morocco/Tunisia will need to look into what's on offer.

      No, you have to apply for citizenship on the government website and then if successful, you will be invited to a ceremony. I have a playlist on our application but please bare in mind, it has changed quite a bit: ua-cam.com/play/PL11FO2uPi8C66bQqB-1HFPtOZ3EBlthhz.html&si=JpS5QUKF8GThaExT
