Re: BC with settled status and 5 years as a worker: will they ask for CSI?

After 5 years of exercising treaty rights you achieve PR status and don't have to be exercising treaty rights anymore once that status has been achieved. You still don't know if the OP has exercised those treaty rights during the 5 qualifyng years for Settle Status. OP can't move the 5 qualifying ...

Re: BC with settled status and 5 years as a worker: will they ask for CSI?

Well, it asks for your employment history dating back 10 years. I'm not too sure about this but I might have read somewhere that '' the applicant must not have been in breach of immigration laws for last the 10 years'' I wonder if not exercising treaty rights (prior to achieving PR status) is ...

Re: BC with settled status and 5 years as a worker: will they ask for CSI?

From what I've read so far, yes, they will ask you for CSI unless they exercise discretion if you don't have or you can't provide proof. If you try to do the online application, there is no way to actually avoid the question/issue. I have a similar issue, I have a gap at the start of my 5 ...

Re: CSI and Good character test

Thanks, if I understand your reply, CSI has nothing to do with good character requirements. But what I think it's not clear to EU citizens who apply for citizenship is if the required 5 continuous years of residence are those that you can accumulate under PR (i.e. working or student with CSI) or ...

Re: CSI and Good character test

alterhase58 indeed my question is about applying for British Citizenship and not getting settled status, which I already have.

I am asking whether the years I spent as a student in the UK and did not have CSI, would cause me to fail the good character requirements.

Thanks.
