I currently hold a settled status and in a few months I'll be able to apply for my British citizenship but I have a few questions about it.
In regards of my address history, I spend from March 2020 to August 2020 those months back home and didn't have any UK address as my UK tenancy finished just before I left. Will I have to put in my application the address where I stayed abroad then? Could the fact that I didn't have a UK address for those months represent an issue in my application? Good question, I don't know the answer. Maybe other members can help. I believe but I'm not sure they want all addresses to be in the UK.

Do I need to give the exact days about when I moved home in these years like DD/MM/YYYY or MM/YYYY will be enough? At the best of your recollection is fine.

In addition, about the professional referee that I'll be required to provide, would a retired nurse be okay to give me her reference or does it need to be someone who is still practicing? Should be OK.
Additionally, is a foreign person who has also gained British citizenship OK to provide references or does he have to be a British person "from birth"? Perfectly fine.

Hi Both, thanks for you replies.

Can I also check, will I need to provide proof of address for every single address where I stayed in these 5 years? In 2020,when i relocated in the UK I stayed at some address only for 1 month.

In addition, for some other addresses where I stayed, the only proof I have is the tenancy agreement. Will that be enough?

Thanks,
Irene

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
Sorry, I thought that I would have been required to provide proof of address for each address where I lived.
What do I need to proof then and what documents can I start to gather together?

Hi everyone,

I'm in a similar situation (received an Application Update email, asking for "5-year address history"). There are 2 differences though:

1. In my case during 2020 I was absent for 4 months and stopped renting during that time. Upon returning I first took Airbnb for 2 weeks and then lived with a friend of mine for 1 month. Only then I started renting a permanent flat. Should I provide these exact details? Should I try to somehow comment in the email that in the first case I stayed in Airbnb and in the second with a friend of mine? Response from alterhase58 also applies to you, don't have to go by month to month to prove this

2. It turned out I messed up one date of my residence, i.e. the month was inaccurate in the initial application. When I send a new list of dates, should I specifically emphasise this in the email? You can
