Naturalisation application questions

Post by K1712 » Fri May 29, 2020 8:00 am

Hello - wondering if someone can please help on this forum. I am filling the naturalisation application online and stuck on 2 questions:
1. When did you first arrive in UK - I arrived in July 2014 on tier 2 Gen which qualifies me for ILR last year and now citizenship but I also lived here on student visa and PSW from May 2007-jun 2011. Which date should I put?

2. Have you had any other work over the past 10 years or since you came to the UK? - do I need to also mention that I worked back in 2010-11 until I was here on my PSW after student visa as that comes within 10 years or just the time for the last 6 years when I came to UK on tier 2 Gen?

Any help on clarifying would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

1. Earlier date is fine.

2. The form clearly asks for the last 10 years, if applicable. It isn't asking for only the 5 years qualifying period. You need to list all the employment you have had for the last 10 years.

Thank you for your reply. With earlier date you mean when I first entered on student visa in 2007? Would that be relevant in this case?

Many thanks

The question in the form is quite simply. I only asks for the date you entered the UK. It is not asking date you entered the UK that THIS application is based on.
