They are basically the same as EU citizens. They need to provide something like P60s, Council Tax bills or other official type documents as proof of residence. Only people under UK Immigration Rules ILR only need to show their passports with visa stamps in/out. EU citizens and family members don't normally get stamps in their passports.nachfee wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 1:07 pmhi there,
My parents have been now in the country for 6 years. They were given Settled status last year and qualify in terms of time.
Now, my parents came here as family members of a EU citizen (my husband). I am now a British citizen as well.
I would like to know what documents they would require to give to proof the 5 continous residence in the UK? They they need to proof the same as if they were EEA citizens? (employed, self-employed, retired or student).
I have read that many people just give their current passport as proof but, Im under the impression that it's only possible when applying as non-EEA route.
Many thanks in advance
It's probably best to fill in the online list up to the limit (30 trips?) and also load a PDF of the print-out from Excel. At the end there should be a box where you can explain this.elorium wrote: ↑Mon Nov 01, 2021 11:25 amhello everyone,
I just got to the part 'Details of trips outside the UK' and I wonder if I need to put every single trip from my last 5 years in there or if I can just attach an excel file later on containing all the trips?
I remember when I was applying for ILR with an immigration firm they asked me to fill out an excel file — not sure if they ended up manually entering each trip. There's quite a lot of short trips.
Thank you

No there is not and you won't get any update until 6 months has passed.

I assume they are only interested in the absences in the last 5 years immediately preceding the application date i.e. if I apply today which is 10/12/2021, I need to go back and list all absences from 10/12/2016. Is this correct?

We are in the process of filling the naturalisation form from my wife. Just a couple of questions:
1) 'Other information: Do you have any other details that you would like to be considered regarding this applicant and their application to be registered as a British Citizen?' ------ Is it necessary to write something in there? similar to when we filled the ILR? Optional.
2) What document(s) can be regarded as proof of residency? Is this to show that my wife was in the country for the past 3 years (qualifying period)? The passport(s) covering the residency period.

I am an EU citizen applying after 12 months of settled status.
1) For proof of residence, I have P60s for 4/5 years. For the year where I don't have a P60, is it ok to attach a letter from the student loan company with an annual summary and also monthly bank statements for the entire year which show I was in the UK? Bank statements are not accepted for naturalisation. Student Loan Co should be ok, or if you have a council tax bill, or perhaps some payslips to cover the period.
2) Also the P60 for 2022 goes up to April 2022 and I am applying end of May 2022, so do I need a payslip for the month of April 2022 to cover the one month or is this not necessary? payslip is fine
Thanks v much for your help!

Note for residency your council tax bills are sufficient, plus your 2022 P60
Question 2: when I moved in 2013 it took me 4 months to find a job and I din't apply to job seeker benefits and I didn't had an insurance. Should I add this into my application??
I understand under EU Treaty Rights you were allowed up to six months job seeking time, just note this period as unemployed. No insurance necessary.
Question 3: From the 5 employers I only have letters from 3, do you think that would be a problem?
You don't need to supply all types of documents. As above one document covering a year is sufficient, employer letters are an option but if you have another document that's fine.
Note the application requires only a minimum of documents.
