Are these all the requirements?

Post by QuinnSen » Fri May 25, 2018 3:08 pm

Hello all,

I just received my ILR last month and plan to apply for citizenship next year. I just want to make sure I understand all the requirements needed to get citizenship once you have ILR. I believe this is the only physical evidence we need to provide:
  • certified copy of current passport
  • BRP ILR card
  • citizenship application
  • original Life in the UK pass test letter (even though I already submitted it with my ILR application)
  • list of absences from the UK in the last 5 years
  • proof of English language ability
And then is this the only non-tangible evidence/requirements we must meet:
  • maintaining good character
  • not being out of the UK more than 450 days in the last 5 years before application
  • not being out of the UK more than 90 days in the last 12 months before application
Besides the above evidence, is there anything else we need to submit when we apply for citizenship? Is any financial information (bank statements, etc) required?


Thanks!

What you have listed is all you need. However, you have to submit your original passport if you apply by post yourself.

Bank statements etc not required.
