Have you read AN guidance and booklet?. I believe you will be able to find answers of your above queries in AN application guidance and booklet specially for your self employment related queries.

If you do not pay income tax through PAYE you must demonstrate that you have discharged your obligations towards the H.M. Revenue & Customs, by attaching a Self Assessment Statement of Account.

4) Question is related to verifying an applicant's good character (legal employment; full & correct payment of taxes & etc) so all employment-related history is required for 10 years (in UK).

5) Yes - tax documents :!:

6) Contract for what :?:

7) A BRP is not evidence of lawful residence (with any absences within prescribed limits) for 5 years.
Submit stamped passport/s.

Thanks Noajthan, I was wondering do I need to give any current contract documents, anyways naturalisation is not based on your employment .(Q6). If I give last year 2014 - 2015 Self assessment tax document is it fine because from April 2014 - April 2015 i was a permanent employee then later I am working as contractor. I have indian passport with all In and Out stamping from UK.

No need for work contract, as you observed, naturalisation is not based on economic activity.

Thanks noajthan, I don't know why they are asking for employment history will they verify last 10 years employment how much you were earning ? It doesn't not make sense is it if this application is not for economic activity.

It's not about earnings as such. It's more about assessing 'good character'.

To this end HO will probe & crosscheck an applicant's compliance with various UK laws & also their immigration status (eg compliance with immigration regulations) that were applicable (to them) at the time.

Employment history is just one element or datasource that is used in this Kafkaesque process.

To prove you met all immigration rules while your immigration status on the category you obtained extensions and further ILR.

The checks will be with HMRC ( tax),HMRC (NIC &ECO) and DWP ,all other govt bodies to check using DPA / compliance and share data about you.

e.g like USA Naturalisation , FBI gets involved.

Its simple ! not rockscience and also you met good character through out your time in the UK. :D
