Hello:
I am in the process of appling for my British Citizenship. I am a European Union citizen and married to a British Citizen. I have been in the UK for the last 12 year but I haven't been working for the last 5 years.

I have some questions regarding the application process:

Q1---Proof of living in the UK. Which documents should I send as they don't accept bank statements and I don't have P60 for the last 5 years? They request government documents but I don't have any......Any idea of what sort of documents can I submit?
My application will be under 5-years requirement (I am European Citizen) or 3 years (I am married to a British)
Is your council tax bill in joint names? That would be fine one for each year. Alternatively, anything to do with child benefit, pensions, etc?

Q2---If I send the online application now. How long do I have to do the biometric and scan the documents after receiving the confirmation email? Just 15 days? I will need some more time to get the documents to proof I was living in the UK
You should only ubpload all documents once you have them, then submit and pay, then the system will prompt you to book an appointment. The sooner the better.

Hello:
I have a question regarding how long do I have to book the biometric appointment after sending the British Citizenship online application?
Only15? Does it depend on availability? You can book the appointment after submission and payment,on the system - timings depend on availability.

Anyone can help me to understand the process and timings once you send the online application and pay? Attend your appointment for biometrics, then up to six months wait for processing and approval - may take much less.

My application is ready to be sent online but I still need some time to have all the documents to prove I have lived in the UK for the past 3/5 years. I requested a letter from GP and it would be ready in 2 or 3 weeks.

Should I send the application now and book the biometrics for as late as I can? or should I wait to have the letter? Personally I would have everything complete before booking an appointment.

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

20 years ago I had a Visa to study in the USA. Do I need to include it?

What about Visa to travel to China?

Have you made any previous UK immigration applications in the UK or abroad?

Regarding the fact that the topics are merged, it is the system doing it. I created a new topic.
For a few minutes it appeared as a different topic after 15 minutes it was automatically merged with my other question.

I don't know if a Student Visa is an immigration application abroad. All this is new to me....
I would say it is not an immigration application because it was temporal visa but not sure

I would appreciate if someone could clarify. I would like to do it right
