Good afternoon,

Several weeks ago I accidentally marked my application as completed. I didn't pay for it as I thought that i didn't submit it and will be able to edit it later. Now i Passed my Life in the UK test and wanted to edit it and I don't have access to edit it. It takes me directly to 'pay for the application' page.

It is funny as it didn't mention that I won't be able to make any changes and I thought that subission is completed after you paid. Do I have to create another application from scratch now?

Thank you for help.

You can edit details as many times as you want before paying and submitting your application. You have to click the first section ( Personal details ) and go through one by one section till you get amend details you want to amend it. Remember all details will be pre-filled and you do not have to fill it again... Good luck

Unless you paid for the application, you can return to it and edit it

Proof of living in the UK requirement

Hi,

I am about to finally submit my application. I am slightly worried about my documents proving the 5 year period of living in the UK. I obviously have residence card (got it two years ago), so back then I was able to prove 5 years of living in the UK (but it was stated that bank statements are more less considered as proof). On the website it is stated that those documents are not accepted. Does it mean that it is more difficult to meet this requirement when you apply for citizenship?

My situation is the following - I have p60's and employer letter confirming that I have been employed since 09/2016. From my previous job, I only have p45 and documents called 'statement of earning' for the years 2014, 2015, 2016. I sent them when applied for residence card so it worked before.

Do you think whether there is any risk that those documents are not sufficient?

Thank you for your help!

I do not believe there should be any issues as you were granted PR, why would they contest it now
