    Can I apply for UK citizenship without passport?

    Hi Mates I got a question.
    My passport is expired and I've applied for renewal in th High Comission of India London. but not sure how much time it will take to renew.

    I want to apply for UK citizenship, is it possible to apply for UK citizenship without passport?

    I've been doing some research and can't find any clear answer.

    On UKBA website in the list of required documents passport is not mandatory.

    UK Border Agency | The documents we require for naturalisation applications

    * your passport; or
    * your nationality identity card; or
    * your Home Office travel document; or
    * your Home Office entitlement card; or
    * your Home Office application registration card; or
    * your birth certificate; or
    * your photo driving licence; or
    * bank, building society or credit card statements issued to you in the last six months.

    I can provide other documents for the Identity proof. So as far as proof of identity is concerned, it seems I can do without passport.

    However it is hard to digest the fact that they will process application without passport.

    UK Naturalisation - Form AN

    One confusing part.

    On the following URL bank stataments are mentioned
    UK Border Agency | The documents we require for naturalisation applications

    However in the form AN - Page 15 the bank statements are not in the list of documents required for Identity:

    SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS.
    SECTION 1 Evidence of identity: required for all applications
    • *Your passport OR
    • *National identity card OR
    • *Home Office travel document OR
    • *Home Office entitlement card OR
    • *Home Office ARC letter OR
    • Your birth certificate OR
    • *Your driving licence


    How strange? I was thinking to use Bank Stataments as Identiy proof and now it seems I can't use it either? Does anyone know if Bank statements are accepted as proof of Identity for UK Citizenship application?
