ILR date for eu citizen

[Alisza]

Hi guys,

The British citizenship application form asks me to give them the date of my ILR. As I understand because I am from eu I should be granted ILR automatically after 5 years.

My problem is that I don't remember what is my exact date of entrance! As there is no visa stamp...Can I use an approximate date? Or will HO will be able to give me my ILR date or first entrance date?

Thanks,
Alina

Common guys, has no one got any ideas at all?

Could you just choose a date that ties in with your other proof of being in the UK (e.g. the date you started work or study in the UK) and work onwards from there?

I don't think the Home Office would have your date of entry from five years ago, although others might know more about this than I do.

Thanks Christophe sounds like a good plan to me.

I couldn't remember my exact date of entry either and just entered my best guess. Nobody asked about it and I was granted citizenship so it was obviously not a problem.

Good luck,
Andrea
