No employment history - Panicking!

[threeoff2015]

Hi I moved to Ireland in 2011 and have never worked during that time. I have a PPS but that's about it.

I was living with my aunt who has MS, and we had a domestic arrangement where I took care of her while she covered our living costs and other needs. This is how I was able to live for 7 years without having an official job.

The problem is now I want to apply for citizenship through naturalization, and when I was filling the form, it says that all applications need to have a letter from your employer, 3 payslips and a P60 or tax statement.

I don't have any of these, because I never held a job during this time. I have all the other documents that prove I was a resident in Ireland (all the bills were in my name, and the tenancy agreement too).

I've read through the government website about the process and it doesn't mention that having a job was a requirement (link below). Is it really true that I must have the employer's letter, payslips and P60?

Thank you for your help!

Obviously if you are unemployed in Ireland you won't be able to get any of those documents, fill up the application form mentioning that you are unemployed.

Are you receiving any carers allowance from the government since you are looking after your aunt? That might be a way to justify your employment even though as you said before there is no employment requirement to apply for naturalisation.
