CSI required for Citizenship

Hello,
I’m self sufficient and now I have 5 years CSI but I applied and got Settled Status before having the full 5 years of CSI because it was not requested anymore and they were you pushing you applying for Settled Status as soon as possible, so I did. Now what do I do if I want to apply for British Citizenship? Practically my 5 years CSI don’t match the Settled Status years but ends after. Thanks for helping

You need a proof of residence for the last 5 years before you make your citizenship application. If you go via the self-sufficiency route, you need to prove that you were covered with the CSI during that period. If you have periods in which you were not covered, then my understanding is that they will count as if you were outside of the country. So, e.g., if you weren't covered for 90 days only last year, this should be fine. If you weren't covered for substantially longer, you have to wait until the number of days without the CSI last year does not exceed 90. Then you will only need to make sure that you satisfy the "450 days outside in the last 5 years" requirement...

I believe that the last post is not accurate. It is my understanding that once one has Settled Status, that is all HO will require for naturalisation, while CSI is not needed

My mistake, I have just caught up with the recent developments by doing my research
