Naturalisation question

Post by wish_uk » Sun Jul 03, 2022 4:42 pm

Dear All,
Does anyone can help me with,

Which date you first arrive in uk?

Firstly I arrived as student tier 4 on 27 jan 2011 at heathrow. But left uk in 2012 after my student visa extension was refused (returned as invalid). I dont have that passport and proof that I left the UK.

Got new passport on Sep 2012 from Italy.
Travelled from Milan on April 2013 and so on….

Then entered UK through channel tunnel have Ink STAMP on arrival 20 March 2016.

While applying citizenship, which entry date shall I mention. First visa or when I enter as a eu spouse.

Is there any chances they can reject my application under bad chracter bcz I dont have exit proof.

Shall I wait until sep 2022 to minimise the refusal chances, bcz the best proof is that my new passport was issued on sep 2012. And have stamps exit from Italy and entry etc.

Do I need to mention every single application I have made
1 - tier 4 visa from pakistan in dec 2010
2 - student visa extension march 2012
3 - eu cit family member resident card sept 2016
4- pre settled status 2019
5 - settled status 2021

Being a eu family member I always has BRC (instead BRP).
I got setteled status instead PR

Question:
Ever has PR?
Will u use BRP?

Some where in the application they mention, they will use BRP details to verify residency period in UK.

Please advise how can I reply to these questions

Declaration form attestation and online application

Post by wish_uk » Wed Jul 06, 2022 6:47 pm

Dear All,
I am asked to submit two referee declaration form with my naturalisation,
I am apply online

Also they say you will have to upload documents through partner website.

And declaration form requires a photograph of applicant with name and date of birth and paste it with glue

My question is ; if i have to upload via partners website service then what is the point of name and date of birth on the back side of pic

Or
Will I need to post this declaration as a physical document.

So far looks like i need to upload via partner website.

No problem - a BRP or BRC provide the required evidence of "free from immigration time restrictions". Or of course your settled status reference number.

Hi, thanks again.
I have submitted the application!
I recieved the code to activate the account.

But also it says,
“UK Visa and Immigration (UKVI) is currently assessing whether your application can be progressed via the Identity Verification app (IDV app).

UKVI aim to carry out this checking process within 7-10 working days from registration with UKVCAS/UKVI. You can not book an appointment at a UKVCAS Service Point or use the IDV app until we contact you again.”

Is this an automated email?

Cz I read a post which says you must book an appointment straightway after you submit the fees.

Thank you.

Not familiar with IDV - it doesn't make any difference to the application itself.
I think if you had given biometrics recently you might be invited to use the IDV app.
Others may be able to shed light on this.
