Hello
I have certified letters (stamped with seals) that I have scanned on my computer verifying my degree. The date however is from 2012. Will I be able to submit these as evidence?

I didn't have to provide documentation. Just clicked that I had a degree from an English speaking country.
I am Canadian - so also a citizen of a English speaking country.
Work History & Arrival dates

Hi experts
Apologies for the 2nd post so close together. I wasn't;t able to go back and edit my other post to include this question.
My visa history for the UK includes:
Working Holiday Visa
Work Visa
Initial Spousal visa
FLR
ILR
For my work history do I need to include my working Holiday work and my work visa history? Or is this not necessary because my visa time reset when I switched to a spousal visa?
Also - as I am applying for naturalisation via my spousal visa ...when does my arrival date into the UK count as? The date of my spousal visa? The date of working Holiday?
Bearing in mind - that during my working holiday and actual work visa - I went back to Canada to complete my Masters Degree ... so there was an initial gap.

The purpose of the question in the form is ONLY to meet the English requirement. HO don't care what your qualifications are generally. Tick no to the degree question as there is nothing you need to submit as you are exempt.

1. Please keep all your questions in one topic.
2. You need to list ALL employment for the time you have been in the UK, as the question clearly asks.
3. There is no 'arrival date' criteria for citizenship. Where did you see this?? The requirement is to have been physically present at the start of the 3 year qualifying period immediately preceding your date of application, based on the Spouse of BC route.

2. Ok ... so this includes employment history when I was in the UK on a working Holiday visa?
3. The arrival date question is in the Trips outside the UK Section. It states:
When did you first arrive in the UK?
Where did you first arrive in the UK?

I do have another question regarding criminal offences. I was given 2 speeding tickets in either 2016 or 2017 for going 5mph. I have absolutely no recollection on what dates they were. They ask for the date of the offence ... if I guesstimate the date and provide an explanation, should this be ok?

Hello
I am self employed. Would it be acceptable to give print outs of requested HMRC documents from their website for my application?
Thanks
