Hi All,
I was recognized as Refugee in 2010 & after completion of 6 full years (5 years on LTR + 1 year on ILR) i applied for Nationality. Home Office has sent a letter today stating that they are refusing my application because i was in the country before 2010 without any leave.

I was an Asylum seeker & had no legal visa between 2006 & 2010 when ultimately i was granted Refugee status. Please advise what should i do? They have sent a questionnaire asking to provide Bank Statements, Utility Bills to prove my legal stay here but i didn't have any bank accounts & lived with friends & family until i was given NASS support in 2009 which lasted till i was granted Refugee status in 2010.

They have given me 10 days to reply on this, please help me.
Thanks

How and when did you enter the country? When did you apply for asylum? How soon was that after entering the country?
