Hi there,

I am new here and I hope someone will be able to share its experience. I will be applying for naturalisation shortly, on the basis of marriage to a british citizen. I meet all the requirements, but I am concerned about section 3 - Good character. I am currently a housewife (career break to raise the kids) and I have never worked in the UK. Looking through previous posts on this forum, I understand that I should then simply state "Housewife" at question 3.1, and leave questions 3.2-3.6 blank. That's fine. My question however is whether I should provide my husband's employement details or any other document.

Anybody here can help?

Thanks a lot!

(I have contacted the UKBA by email over two months ago (!!!), but no response so far, apart from the initial automatic reply, and 7 weeks later, an email asking whether I still wanted my question to be dealt with!!!)

Your husband employment details are not needed. It's OK to leave the questions empty if you don't work.

Even people who do not work, can be considered "good characters"

Don't worry about that , being a housewife is just perfect and besides , not having a job has nothing to do with good character , so enjoy yourself and you will soon be a BC

Thanks a lot Jambo and trs2011 for your replies! I am such a worrier, I really look forward to the whole thing being over!!!

Thanks!

Just a quick update. I had also contacted the UKBA by email with the same question. After months (!!) I have finally received a reply, and it confirmed what Jambo and trs2011 had already said. Here is a copy of the email:

"Thank you for your email regarding applying for British Citizenship.
I can confirm that the fact you are a housewife will have no bearing on your application.  Therefore on section 3.1 of the form please state your occupation as housewife and leave the rest blank."

Your answer will be highly appreciated
