Proof of living in the UK for 5 years?

Post by Macram18 » Sat May 21, 2022 3:50 pm

Hi all,

I am in the middle of my naturalisation application

As part of the documents I need to provide, it says that I need to give proof of living in the UK for 5 years and then it goes on and says;

"If you do not have your passport or it was not stamped when you entered the UK, you need to include letters (for example, from your employer or government department) as proof."

"Bank statements or household bills are not suitable proof you have been living in the UK."

I am not entirely sure what they mean here. I am thinking of attaching my payslips but do I need to give every single monthly payslip for the past 5 years? :?

Many thanks in advance

You only need your passports.

You do not need to submit payslips.

If passports were not stamped on UK entries, etc., then consider including additional evidence to limit absences.
