Extract from the link belowAmber wrote:I will reiterate, if you have not had Refugee Status, it's likely that you will be refused citizenship if, in the previous 10 years you have any period of contravening immigration control, I.e. Being in the UK unlawfully. The exceptions are only likely to include times when you were in the UK illegally for periods not deliberate or substantial. An example, may be when an in time application was deemed invalid and made you an overstsayer but, you subsequently rectified this by resubmitting the application and you were successful. Prolonged periods of being in the UK illegally are unlikely to be disregarded unless, for example, you were in hospital and had no way of making an in time application.
