Suitability denial

Yes this makes a lot of sense. They had asked me if I’m willing to renounce my other passport , I said SURE . I assured them that this is home and no plans or willingness whatsoever of returning to the previous life/country.
Many thanks amberbunny

At times you surrender it to the FSO but I recommend destruction by them. That way there is a record it was destroyed. They don’t want you to do it and then have a means of leaving the country.

Yeah my FSO never asked me to surrender it. You’re right I’ll leave it up to them to do whatever they want with it.
