HI! Can you please help me to understand if I got my document's list right for naturalisation application.
I got my iLR in 2021 as spouse, divorced now, non-EU, non- EEA, not married to BC, ukrainian.
I apply on route ILR + 1 year and showing 5 years of residency.
As I got it I need to provide:
-my current passport as identification,
-BRP,
-English exam B1 - can use the same as used for ILR - certificate,
-Life in UK test results - online reference,
-2 declarations signed by referees,
- my passport all pages as 5 years residency to show travelling history.

Had 2 absences during last 5 years. My passport was stamped only when was entering country.
Will passport be okay as proof of residence?
Do I need to add boarding passes when was leaving UK?

I got additional documents as P60 for 4 years and P45, letters from HMRC and GP, bunch of payslips for the whole time. As I understand they are not mandatory.
Was advised to use all documents I have but would it make a difference?

Thank you)

Passport only.

Do not submit unnecessary documents. You only need your passport to prove residency.

It is only EU citizens and their family that require the additional documents as their passports don't get stamped.

I got only stamps when entering UK both times, no exit stamps when leaving UK or entries/exits to/from countries I travelled to. Can caseworker see my departure dates from UK?

That's normal. You're overthinking.

Ukvi get all the airline passenger info from flights
