Past addresses on application

Post by iliketea » Fri Oct 23, 2020 1:06 pm

Hi,

I'm in the progress of filling out my naturalisation application and I have a few questions regarding past addresses.

1) Move in/out dates - I'm getting this from my contracts, but obviously the exact dates that I physically moved in/out will slightly differ. This would be evident from my absences history. Do I need to provide additional explanation?

2) With regards to proof of address, would a letter from my landlord be sufficient, as I am missing some of my contracts.


Thanks

Include unpaid work in Employment section?

Post by iliketea » Thu Oct 29, 2020 10:28 pm

I got some periods where I 'worked' for university residences in exchange for accommodation. Obviously, this will not show up on any HMRC records as it's not actually a paid employment. Do I have to include this in my Employment history considering it was unpaid (maybe include it with an explanation?)?

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, I will still declare it, just in case.

Absences destination country question

Post by iliketea » Mon Nov 02, 2020 3:19 am

I'm from Bulgaria, but almost all my flights are to Bucharest, Romania as that's closer to where my parents live in Bulgaria and often works out cheaper. In my absences history, should I say that I travelled to Romania or Bulgaria? If I say Bulgaria, do I have to provide an additional explanation?

Kindly keep all questions on the same application in one topic, this one.

First of all, don't count travel days out/back to UK. Your final destination is Bulgaria, no need to explain.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.
