Five year Residency Proof

[mq1979pk]

Hello

I am a family of EEA National applying for citizenship. I have a question regarding five year residency proof. Document checklist requirement is following:-

If you are a Non-EEA National, you need to include your passport to prove you have lived in the UK for the relevant 3- or 5-year period.

My question is I travelled to Pakistan, Belgium, France and Norway on EEA residence card during the last five years. My passport was never stamped in the UK but every time it was stamped for entry and exit in the destination countries. can anyone please tell me if need to submit any documents other then passport to prove my five year residency.

Regards

Hello

Just your passport and document your travel.

As non EU, when you travel this leaves stamps on your passport. That's why it's easier for you to prove the 5 years with your passport.

Your passport should be enough as proof of residence. You will need to scan all the pages of the passport and upload to the UKVCAS website. You will need to scan and submit the EEA residence card as well anyway

I think you do.

As the family member of an EEA national, you would have been covered under Directive2004/38/EC, which states that your passport should not be stamped when entering and leaving an EEA member-state. Even if it was stamped at places outside the EEA, it was not stamped in every instance of you moving between countries and therefore, your passport is not, by itself, sufficient proof of your presence or absence from the UK.

It was stamped in Oslo, Norway. I travelled to Belgium by train It was stamped at St. Pancras station and then on my way back it was again stamped on Brussels train station. It has all the stamps of my travel but never stamped in UK (except the one i mentioned and the one when i entered first time on EEA Family permit)
