Really worried for Administrative Caution
Posted: Thu Jan 05, 2017 9:58 am
Hello all, I really need proper information regarding my Administrative Caution which I got on 2011.
I am Non European Family member of EEA national. We came to UK on 2010. On that time we were not aware that If you get TAX credit you have to inform you Housing benefit office as well. Because we though all are centralized system. Eventually our local council gave us the notice for benefit fraud interview. When we just told them we were not just aware that we have to provide tax credit award letter. However after that They gave us Administrative caution to not follow change of circumstances procedure which was on begining of 2011.
I got my Permanent residence on Feb 2016. This feb 2017 I am going to apply for my british citezenship. I have two query:
1) Will this Benefit Administrative caution issued on 2011 affect my application for british citezenship?
2) Is this mandatory to disclose this information in my application even it is more than 5 years before?
Thanks in advance for your kind advice...
