Little Gaps Query

Post by Montanaaa » Thu Apr 03, 2014 5:37 pm

Hey, i submitted my application for naturalization on the 1st, since then iv been thinking, let me explain my current situation so its easy for you to understand.

I do not have a passport, iv had ILR for since 2004, been in the country since 1996. For my application i had to provide information that i have been in the UK for the last 5 years. I provided two documents in my application. A university letter which covered which covered 3 years and a JSA letter which has covered periods in the last two years. So for the majority of the last 5 years iv been covered.

In the last two years, theres 3 little gaps.

1. 22/05/2012 - 11/08/2012 - during this gap i finished university and was looking for work, until i decided to sign on in august. roughly 3 months gap

2. 16/06/2013 - 26/06/2013 - This gap, i signed off(16th) and signed back on again on the 26th because i wanted a new adviser. (thats the only way you can change) one week gap

3. 10/11/2013 - 18/12/2013 - I signed off because i was planning to move to manchester from london, that fell through, so i had to go back to london and sign back on. so roughly one month gap

So as you can see here, theres three gaps, which i cant provide proof for, i have no passport, so i definitely did not travel. My question is, do you think this will be an issue? Or is it something minor?

Not an issue. Even if you would have spent those gaps abroad you would still be under the allowed absences (450 days in 5 years).
