Right, so we're getting together our papers to give notice, ring up the registrar to make sure we're sending the documents to the right address, and she mentions that we need include copies of our passports. Now, I can sort of understand why she might need mine since I'm not a British citizen, but why would she need my OH's who is a British citizen (and told her so)? Why wouldn't his birth certificate suffice? I imagine there are Brits who don't have passports and that's certainly an expensive purchase if you're getting one just for giving notice!
