Hi,

I am an Italian citizen who has lived in the UK since September 2003, first for university and then full time employement.

I am applying for british citizenship and had 2questions on the application form:

1 Section 2.1 on pg 12: "Date and place of first arrival in the United Kingdom": I know I first came to the UK in September 2003 but cannot remember the exact date. Can i leave this section blank so should I put in my best guess on when in September I entered the country?

2. Section 1.22 on pg 7: "academic qualification deemed by UK NARIC to meet the recognised standard of a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree or PhD in the United Kingdom". I went to a UK university. Is there a website which says which universities are recognised by UK NARIC because I cannot find this.

Help in the above queries would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards

1) Month & year should be acceptable.

If nervous about this you could put a comment in the 'additional info' section of the form to explain it's to the best of your memory.

2) If it was a regular/mainstream UK university (& what other sort is there) you just need to submit your degree certificate.

Many thanks for your helpful response.
