How much do you think getting married costs in the UK? You can get married for

We are having a civil ceremony next year and the registrar will roughly be £200, £60 for giving notice and then £150 for the venue

I like the way you ask me as if I'm not from the UK...

I want a wedding day. Not just to sign some paperwork.
I want to wear a lovely white dress and have all my family there (and feed them) and have a great day. And it will cost money (I don't want a huge do with over the top things like white doves and fireworks in a castle) but I don't think there is anything wrong with wanting to have a proper celebration.

with our rent and bills in relation to wages in cornwall I really struggle to save anything.

Also this is what the U.K. site says in regard to natural born citizens of the U.K.

www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk...

Based on that because one parents was citizen you should qualify. Maybe you could try applying at a different office?

I agree, it seems you do qualify but somebody has made an error.
Perhaps try another office or some kind of appeals or complaints system?

Best of luck through this frustrating time.

If you've legally resided in the UK continuously for 10 years then you have ILR (Indefinite Leave to Remain) and can apply for your citizenship immediately. Even if you were there illegaly, since you've been there for more than 20 years you can apply for ILR.

I'm not an immigrant so cannot apply for this. And I am not here illegally and never have been.
I already have the right to abode in the UK so cannot apply for this as its an immigration status as it just grants you the right to abode in the UK. It wouldn't get me a passport....I want to get out not in.

If you click the link and look at the right column it states that if your parents weren't married you cannot claim through your father.

Update: The danish embassy couldnt help but suggested we email the uk home office. So just waiting for a reply from them.

I didn't say they wouldn't get their hair mussed,just avoid living in a city on the coast or a larger populated NORTHERN town.
