An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person concerned was received in the Citizenship Division of my Department on 26 April 2006.
In making an application for naturalisation, applicants are specifically requested that only copies of supporting documentation such as passports, travel documents, etc should be submitted. I am advised by officials in the Citizenship Division that there is no record of any original documentation being received from the applicant in this case.
I will inform the Deputy and the person concerned when I have reached a decision on the application.
