Good Character for Citizenship (Refugee)
Posted: Sun Aug 22, 2021 4:12 pm
Hello guys,
I need help please, I am looking forward to apply for naturalisation. But I wanted some advice on my situation.
I came in UK to escape prosecution from my home country in 2013. I have entered the UK illegally by air with the help of an agent, using someone's passport. We had transit in two African countries to change the plane.
I brought myself to the authority near Croydon the same day I have entered, applied for asylum the same day and was granted asylum straightway in 2015 for my initial decision.
I have a british spouse.
I got ILR in 2020 and I am about to apply for citizenship but I wanted to know if I will be penalised for entered the UK illegally? Or discretion will be applied on my case.
And regarding the port of entry I don't remember if it was Heathrow or Gatwick, so I have no idea what I will be answering on my application.
Hope to hearing from you soon.
Thank you.
