Date of first arrival in UK, with a view to stay longterm.
Having read the guides I am not 100% sure whether I need to expand on this question. My wife has been here legally since the 31/07/2011, she came in on the 2 year visa.She has her ILR and we are ready to send in the citizenship application in the beginning of August. But I am wondering whether my wife needs to explain that she was in the UK for several years before, overstaying. She could argue that she first arrived in the UK in 2002 with a view to stay longterm....just not legally! Of course all her immigration history was put in her first application for the 2 year visa.
I have a feeling not to complicate matters and assume that whoever checks her application will also look back at her whole file.
