British Citizenship Requirements / Spouse / Misleading help
Posted: Mon Aug 18, 2014 9:46 pm
Hi
I have got my souse visa on november 23/11/2011 but i arrived in the UK on 15/12/2011 and i have received my ILR on 18th november 2013.
I am planning to apply for my british citizenship this year and Home office Guidance is quite misleading and confusing, and the answers are not straight forward.
First can i apply on 18th november 2014 for citizenship or i need to wait till 15th dec 2014 ????
I know i have to provide these requirements :
Marriage certificate ,
HMRC
3Have been in the UK for 3 years on any legal visa status and have ILR on the date of application
Have been present in the UK on the date 3 years prior to the application being received by the Nationality Directorate
Not have been absent from the UK for more than 270 days in those 3 years
Not have been absent from the UK for more than 90 days in the immediate 12 months before application
Be of good character
Pass the British Citizenship test/ Life in the UK Test
Have sufficient knowledge of English, Welsh or Gaelic
Have an intention to live in the UK
Be over 18 years old
I know all that !
My question is now that to apply for citizenship , for ILR I have provided the home office with the assets i own and my husband company documents and our bills like council , electricity, gas etc, pictures together our Travel bookings (hotels & tickets) to different countries.
Do i have to present them all over again everything for me and my husband or just documents regarding me? Or these documents not required??
Thank you for the help
