Hello everyone,

Please can someone help me please. I am wondering if i need to send documents going back 5 years as I am applying to naturalise to a British citizen using the AN form based on my 5 years partner route which I got the settlement visa for early this month. I applied super priority and I got it the following day. Now I am making a citizenship application.

The form is asking for payslips and p60 from my employer. How many months payslips do I need? And also for my letters etc do they all need to be saying back 5 years because that is what the indefinite leave to remain was based on?

A bit of background.

I came here as a child in 2004, after my parents students visa ran out. After a few refused applications FLR O at the time, I was granted a visa based on British husband and child in 2018. We switched to the 5 year partner route and I finally got a settlement visa early this month! Thanks to all the advice from experiences and members here.

Many thanks

All you need (as an ILR holder) is your passport(s) covering the residency period for naturalisation.
The application requires a minimum of documents. Naturalisation is not a continuation of ILR, it's not an immigration application.
Also, all documents are uploaded, not sent in original. No P60, payslips or letters.

NOTE: there are no priority options for AN. UKVI advises a processing target of 6 months, many applications are approved faster than that, some take longer. You also have to wait for the citizenship ceremony, after that you are a British citizen, then apply for your passport which is much faster at that stage.
