URGENT PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who it may concern

My Granddaughter was born on 1st September 2017 in the UK, she send the registration for her birth to the UK Embassy on the 6th of September 2017 along with her application for the baby’s passport.

The birth registration was only done 3 weeks ago and the application came through on Thursday the 7th of December 2017.

Now I do understand that the process takes longer due to the root it has to go and I really accept that. But my problem is this……

My mom is very is very ill, see attached the letter of the Doctor who is overseeing my mom’s health at Hospice. My mom’s last wish is that she can see my daughter and her children before she go. Now because of Layla’s the new-born passport and unbridged Birth certificate took so long to register, the time is running out for my mom. Last week the passport was stopped to be send to the UK cause it would have taken longer for delivery in the UK. Unfortunately the un-bridge certificate was send already. And I need to get it reprinted.

But now I need authorisation from the embassy in London to give me permission to collect the passport and reprint the un-bridge certificate at Byron Place in Pretoria and send it Speed Service to my daughter in Bristol UK. Please be so kind to send an email to Phillip Rambuda with authorisation to send the passport to Byron Place for me to collect. See below the email my daughters email giving me permission to collect it in Pretoria.

Please I beg you, we are really running out of time and the one wish she had might not to be for filled.

my email address is rika@nobods.co.za

Change of name in passport
I have recently received my British citizenship and have applied for a British passport.
however I have just got married, so applied for the passport in my married name. I have been refused as I still have a South African passport in my other married name.
I was told to change my name in my SA passport to my married name.
How do I go about this?
I am resident in the UK
Thank you

Statue of Field Marshall Smuts in London, Parliament Square
I'm searching for a pre 1965 colour picture/photo of Field Marshall Smuts, taken in Parliament Square, London. It should be greenish, before it was darkened. The statue was erected in 1956 and was described as "bright green".Any help would be gratefully received, even a link to Smuts society or something similar. My email is jawmac@aol.com.
Thank you,

Accomodation in London
Good Dear Sir/Madam

My name is Nomfazwe Nkobo mother of Tokelo Nkobo a (16years old). My son went for trial at Queens Park Rangers and he was successful and was offered a place. See attached letter.

I am humbly asking for assistance in term of my Son accommodation while he is there studying , we are unable to complete a study visa without accommodation. Kindly assist on how we can get a student Visa for him while we sorting out the accommodation for him.

If you can as well assist in referring to places that are near Newham College as he will be going to that college, we can book accommodation for the period of the school. The school is opening on the first week of September. We need to complete the Visa as soon as possible , for him to be able to enroll to the college.

Kindly direct me to a person who can as well assist me in this regards.

Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.

Regards
Nomfazwe Nkobo
