Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

Thank you! That's odd because I have read otherwise about boarding passes and flight tickets, and the source seemed reliable. I provided a rental contract and proof of payment for the first 4 months and any other document I have from that era (invoices, flight tickets, NHS letters, bank statements) ...

Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

Hello, I am back with one more update! They asked me to provide all scanned pages of my old passport (from 2020 and back), but I don’t know where it is. :( Is there anything else I can do? I already provided every single flight/train ticket I had from the 5 year period. (They were all EU-UK anyway, ...

Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

Hello again, I came back with a few questions and updates. I spoke to a solicitor and they told me my case is complicated, quite risky but not hopeless. They also said my preparation / paperwork was very good and the fact I got settled status last year means I did a good job justifying my gaps, so I...

Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

I know very well this what is going on and how they view it, but politically I couldn't disagree more, but that's a conversation for a different forum.

Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

I see, understandable but very frustrating, and kind of unfair. I think they should be more thoughtful towards people's circumstances with the pandemic, with or without risk of dying. settled status criteria is handling this matter much more fair. If I end up applying I will report back

Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

Thank you very much! That is super super helpful! I understand the point but how are they going to determine this? Are they doctors? Why question a doctor report? Also, medical reports don’t say stuff like that ”absolutely must not, under any circumstances do blah blah”. you usually see comments mor...

Re: citizenship application but 1 long absence

Hello, thank you so much for your reply. That’s what I’ve seen around this blog as well :( I do have papers from a public hospital in Greece, covering the whole era of me being sick or asked to stay in quarantine due to serious risk and returning symptoms. I used the same papers for settled status a...

citizenship application but 1 long absence

Hi everyone!! I am an EU citizen with settled status since 2023. I want to for citizenship but I have substantial absences in 2020 because of covid. I read some comments in this blog that don't give me hope but some solicitors online say it might be possible, so I thought of sharing my story. I firs...
