Citizenship Documents Clarification

Hi,

I'm a Spanish citizen applying for British naturalisation with ILR granted over a year ago.
I'm very confused at the moment about what documents to provide.

I've already submitted and payed for my application and I'm gathering the documents needed on the "Document Checklist":

1. The passport issued by Spain for Miss xxx
My old and new passport, all pages scanned covering my qualifying period (5years), correct?

2. If you spent some of that time in the UK as a student or as a self-sufficient person, and had comprehensive
sickness insurance (CSI), a copy of your sickness insurance policy
None of this applies for me. I have been working for the past 6 years in the UK. Should I just ignore it?

3. Evidence that you have been in the UK lawfully for your 3 or 5 year qualifying residence period. This should be evidence that you were here as a worker, student, self-employed, self-sufficient, retired or
incapacitated person.
Is it enough to provide the p60s for my 5 year qualifying period? Should I include something else?

4. Miss xxx's certificate proving you have a speaking and listening qualification in
English at B1 CEFR or higher.
I'm including my B1 english qualification.

5. Miss xxx's proof of Nationality
I understand my Spanish passport is enough, am I right? Should I include my Spanish ID card as well?

6. Proof of living in the UK for Miss xxxxx for 5 years if applying in your own right or 3
years if applying as the spouse of a British Citizen.
This is where I'm stuck. Are the p60s enough? What else should I include here?

7. Two referee declarations for Miss xxxxxx
Got these :)

Sorry for the long post. I'd appreciate if someone could help me clarifying my questions.

Many thanks in advance :)

Your current passport bio page is enough as you can not use the passport to prove residence in your case

2. If you spent some of that time in the UK as a student or as a self-sufficient person, and had comprehensive
sickness insurance (CSI), a copy of your sickness insurance policy

If it does not apply to you, ignore. For more help see: british-citizenship/csi-and-settle-stat ... 01196.html

3. Evidence that you have been in the UK lawfully for your 3 or 5 year qualifying residence period. This should be evidence that you were here as a worker, student, self-employed, self-sufficient, retired or

P60s are enough

Correct

5. Miss xxx's proof of Nationality

Passport should be enough

6. Proof of living in the UK for Miss xxxxx for 5 years if applying in your own right or 3
years if applying as the spouse of a British Citizen.

This seems to be a repeat of point 3

Got these :)

Assuming you input LIUK reference in the form

Thank you so much for your quick reply :)

Indeed, I put my LIUK ref. number as I don't have a hard copy of my test result. This should be enough, right?
You made me wonder now :roll: haha

Yes. You do not get a hard copy now. Previously, used to be.
