Hi, my name is Matthias. I was born in Germany, but moved from there with my family when I was 14. We moved around a bit, but we finally settled in England in 2002, in 2022 I married my beautiful wife Louise and now want to become a British citizen.
The cost of becoming a British Citizen is adding up.
£160 for a B1 English test
£50 for a Life in the UK test (I've booked 3 so far)
£10 worth of fuel to get to each of these tests
£79 worth of revision materials for these tests
That's just the costs so far
Then I need to pay £1,839 to submit the citizenship application and obtain a British Passport, as all British Citizens now require a British Passport (an additional £102) to return to the UK if they go abroad.
That's it, assuming I pass my next Life in the UK test on 22nd May and get the paperwork submitted before 15th June (my English test runs out then), otherwise the costs go up even more, believe me, I'm practising loads for this test.
I'll be eternally grateful to anyone who can help me with this, as it's really important to me.
Thank you, everyone.
Matthias
