Help with New Online Application

[Hamada1981]

Hello guys
I need your help with completing the online form for naturalisation [long residence + ILR obtained 3 years ago].
Actually, I had 6 previous UK immigration applications and I can give the dates of the start and expire of each visa. However, I cannot give the dates of submission, biometrics taken or the reference number of some of these applications which the forms mainly asks for. How could this be sorted out? Am I allowed to write approximate dates in this case?

If my total absences in the last 5 years are more than 450 days but less than 480, what should be the answer to the following questions?
(1) Do you meet these residence requirements? Yes/No
(2) Are there any reasons why you cannot meet the requirements to become a British citizen (for example, you have had too many absences from the UK)? Yes/No

(3) If you do not meet the statutory requirements to become a British citizen, are there any special circumstances why you think the Home Secretary should still grant your application? Yes/No

And if the answer to Q2 or Q3 is No. Where can I write about the links that I have with the UK and explain how the UK is my Home now? Do I need to answer Yes to Q3 or can I write a cover letter and scan it with the documents?

Thank you for your help.

Yes write approximates. Some of those dates and info are not mandatory to enter

Answer Yes to Q3 and explain that you are requesting the secretary of the state to exercise discretion
