You have ILR under the UK Immigration rules not PR under the EU route.

Have you read the form AN and AN guidance notes at all? Suggest start with those and the link below and then ask if you need clarity on something.

Thanks for response , I have read AN guideline , but it will be big help if anyone who have successfully applied for naturalization recently can give their input here

Bit more on a background :
I am an Indian citizen , came in UK on tier1 general visa on December 2010, got my ILR on December 2015
I am IT contractor and contracting through my limited company from last 6 years and taking salary and dividends from my limited company

English language eligibility and Evidence :
During my ILR , by extension and my initial application , I claimed my English eligibility points based on master degree as my University was listed on UKBA point based calculator system
My doubt is can I claim same for my naturalization, do I have to provide my degree certificate as well or do I need to get NARIC certificate against my degree

Life in UK eligibility and Evidence:
During my ILR application , I have passed my Life in UK test and submitted my certificate , I guess I have lost that certificate ( as I applied over mail for my ILR ) do I have to give Life in UK test again or its sufficient to mention that I have passed this test and met this requirement during my ILR application

Residence requirement and Evidence of lawful residence during the last 5 years :
I meet residence requirement never exceeded out stay limit (90 days in the last 12 months and 450 days in last 5 years) I have all entry/exit stamps on my passport , what else documents should I provide for this

Good character requirement :
I guess I am covered here , as of now NO traffic/driving offence ( at least I have not received any notice/letter till now) , all taxes paid to HMRC no pending dues , no penalty letter issues as of now
Do you need to check somewhere before my application for any missed/lost notices/letters issued to me


Do I need to keep my P60 for last few years and Self-Assessment declaration document , is there any other documents that I should prepare and be ready with
