5 years period requirment for British Citizenship

Post by khalchris99 » Sat Apr 17, 2021 2:35 pm

Hi everyone,

I am an EU citizen, my ILR was obtained in 09/2019
I lived in UK since 2009.
Full time student in UK: from 09/09/2009-15/01/2017
Comprehensive risk insurance (04/04/2016-03/04-2017) to cover me for the time i was a student.
Working full time from 01/12/2016.
I have life in UK test and English language certificate (my degrees were taught in English in UK universities) and all other required documents.

I left the UK to visit my family from 24/04/2016-11/05/2016 in that year. Does that mean I need to wait until 12/05/2021 or after this year to apply? or I am good to go?

I am confused because of this statment in the UK.gov website says:

If the Home Office receives your application on 20 June 2022, but you left the UK on 10 June 2017 and returned to the UK on 25 June 2017, you will not qualify. You’ll need to wait until 24 June 2022 to apply.

Thank you all in advance
