Hi
I am applying for naturalisation next month and have 3 questions if anyone could please help.

1. I would like to check for the 'Immigration details' section where it asks 'Have you made any previous UK immigration applications in the UK or aboard'? What does this really mena? Does that need to include Tier 2 visa details and Tier 4 before I had my ILR from 2018?

2. If i've run out of space in the 'Trips outside the UK section' where's best to insert this information'?

3. Lastly one of my referees is in Switzerland (but British) would that be an issue?

Many thanks
Roneeta

1. ALL visa applications you have made as the question asks.

2. Excel schedule and upload with documents.

3. No as long as they meet the requirements.

Ok thank you for the advice. However you would think that they would make it possible not to have to lie on the form!!

Hi all,

I am an EU citizen with permanent residency since 2016 applying for naturalisation. I am trying to figure out when I can submit my application. The Guide AN Naturalisation booklet states:

"You must have been physically present in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern
Ireland, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands on the day 5 years before the
application is received by the Home Office".

Back in Autumn 2014 I travelled quite a lot for work and was in and out of country. Not to breach the above rule I have to figure out if "application is received by the Home Office" is when I submit my online application, or the moment I attend the UKVCAS appointment to enrol biometrics etc.

Could anyone help with this please?

Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
I am in process of applying naturalisation for my wife and while filling the online application I came across two question which a bit confusing

1.Do you have any dependents not applying with you at this time ? I am British citizen and have two kids both of them are British citizens.what should be the answer. Since it’s your wife application, all other family members have BC, just write No for her

2.have you previously made any other uk immigration applications in the uk or abroad? what should be the answer if yes Do I need to list all visa application details since she first applied to u.k till she got ILR. Yes

any response would be appreciated.Thanks

• This 22nd of January I will have my ILR for exactly 12 months, how do I prove that in my application considering that for the settled status you don't receive any document bust just a pdf (where it's explicitly written that this letter is not proof of your permanent residence but the passport is) confirming your ILR status. You can also generate a code from the HO link and provide that so they can check my status.

• I am a bit concerned about listing all the absences in the last 5 years,I travel a lot, short trips, I am confident that I haven't exceed the 450 days threshold for the 5 years and 90 days max in the last 12 months for the ILR but how do you exactly prove that ? I read in the forum that someone suggested to list every single trip. I am not sure that I missed some Easyjet email or some dates might be wrong (there are cases where I cancel the flight) would that be an issue ?

Hi, I'm in the process of getting everything sorted for my Naturalisation application as an EU applicant. I just have some doubts that hopefully someone here more will be able to help, thanks in advance.

Suggest you load the PDF with your other documents - and also your code if that's what you get

List out as much data as you can recall, estimating dates/durations is fine. You don't need to include outbound/inbound days. You just declare what you have, there's no need to prove everything.

Thank you. When they say for the required supportive documents : evidence of national insurance contributions covering the relevant period :
Pay slips,p60s,letter or letters from your employer or employers confirming you have worked in their employment including start and finish dates.

There are 5 months total in my 6 years where I was unemployed, will this be an issue considering that during those 5 months I wasn't contributing to national insurance?
Thanks

Hi all,
We are EU family, I have nearly sorted out our application and ready to pay, just would like to clarify some doubts under the section (Immigration details- Have you made any previous UK immigration applications in the UK or aboard?)
1. Do I need to reveal the details about application for Registration Certificate, the blue one; I did apply for back in 2011
2. Do I need to reveal an application for Settlement status which has been granted last January?

Could anyone help please!

Thanks!
