Hi all,
I moved here from Italy in 2012 and I finally can apply for citizenship after having passed the english test and life in the uk one. I have been filling the naturalisation form and I have few questions, it would be great if someone have any advice:
Does my permanent residence card have Biometric residence permit? It's a blue card with details and my picture.

Does the HMRC proof of employment works for proof of living in the uk? Or should I contact my old employer?

My partner’s (we are not married or civil partnership, just been living together for the last 6 years) sister is a teacher, can she be one of the referee?

I had a speeding ticket when I was living in Italy in 2009, since then I lost my driving licence and I had to request a new one from DVLA, I am now unable to find out the exact date, what should I do?

My last day at my current job is on Friday and I'm starting a new one on the 7th October. Is it safe to send the application before Friday or should I wait to start the new job?

Thank you for your time!

John

No

Yes will be enough if it show that you was working

My partner’s (we are not married or civil partnership, just been living together for the last 6 years) sister is a teacher, can she be one of the referee?
I don't really know but if you are not married or not on civil partnership so I guess will be fine , just guessing

Speeding ticket shouldn't affect your application

My last day at my current job is on Friday and I'm starting a new one on the 7th October. Is it safe to send the application before Friday or should I wait to start the new job?
Work or not , change your job or not it's nothing to do with your application
Thank you for your time!

Thank you for your answer!
Should I say that I don't have any driving offence at all then? I don't want to lie and it's more than 10 years ago. I tried to add just the year but it requires day and month.

I mentioned my job as it asks if I am currently employed, and if I put my current job it would be valid until Friday which is my last day I guess?
Thanks again.

You are overthinking this. No need to declare your ticket or over think your employment status which is not relevant

Thank you, I just didn’t want to lie and be banned from the application.

Hi,
I spoke with the Home Office and am they asked to provide a cover letter about my speeding ticket.
Does anyone have a template for this? Tried to search on this forum but couldn’t find anything.
Thanks

We don't have file of template letters for everything that members ask unfortunately. Simply write a concise brief letter explaining if you want to.
