It is now a requirement (since November 2015) for you to get a PR card before applying for naturalisation. The PR card is required as proof that you have acquired PR. So, really, there is no choice in this matter.edga wrote:1. Is it even a good idea? The way I look at it, I pay 65GBP to get PR and at least some of the basic stuff will be checked before I splash ~1300 for Citizenship (I miss the 960 price from 2 years ago!)
edga wrote:So let me get this right:
1. I use the older EEA3 Form You can if you want, it's much easier
2. My period will cover May 2011 - May 2016 seems fine
3. I mention two employments of which I include my contracts, P60s and all payslips ? (they say recent, does it mean the recent from current employer, only one?) Include all P60's covering the 5 year period and also a couple of pay slips from each year
4. No need to mention about absences Unless you have a lot, then no
5. Attaching the ID - my current one expired and I have to go to Poland to apply for a new one - will it be better to use passport instead of a fresh ID? Needs to be a valid ID
6. Do I need to do the biometric stuff right now or next year before applying for citizenship? Biometric enrolment is not required for EEA citizens applying for EEA residence documentation
7. Also I was working between May - September 2011 with an employer that never produced P45, do I attach payslips for those few months? I do have all the P60s from 2012-2016 Why didn't you get a P45?
You need good if not unimpeachable documentary supporting evidence to back your case.edga wrote:I don't have P45 because that employer was the same that didn't care to register me for WRS etc. - in other words, despite being a "businesswoman" she didn't care about the little things.
Basically my P60 for year 2011-2012 is lower in terms of tax paid than it should be.. the employer doesn't exist anymore, what should I do?
I think officially I had 3 employers in June 2011 the company "went bust" and they changed the name of the company - but I don't have the contract for that third one. Are payslips good enough?
My current employer changed my contract couple of times due to my promotions (I'm on my 4th right now). Do I have to submit all contracts or only the first one?
Request password back after filing the application. Simples.edga wrote:Also do you know how long do they keep the ID/Passport for? It's such a hassle with getting new ID so I would give them my passport but if they keep it for few months then I can't travel..
I'm assuming PaySlips aren't good enough. At the moment it would look like follows:noajthan wrote:You need good if not unimpeachable documentary supporting evidence to back your case.edga wrote:I don't have P45 because that employer was the same that didn't care to register me for WRS etc. - in other words, despite being a "businesswoman" she didn't care about the little things.

As you have evidently discovered HO plays hardball and doesn't take prisoners.
If you don't have more than adequate documentary supporting evidence for a particular period you may be setting yourself up for a fall.
Thanks to your dodgy businesswoman employer you may be better off sacrificing the first 2011 period of employment.
Don't give HO the Spam of 'wriggle room' to deny you with.
It may be adequate.edga wrote:[I'm assuming PaySlips aren't good enough. At the moment it would look like follows:
1. 01/05/2011 - 31/06/2011 - Employer #1 I have the contract + payslips
2. 01/07/2011 - 23/08/2011 - Employer #1b (different company name) Payslips only
3. 05/09/2011 - present - Employer #3 All contracts (incl position changes), all P60s (2012,2013,2014,2015), few payslips from each year
How does it look?
For HMRC records, suggest search in forum to see which links other members have used or try one or more of these links:edga wrote:Hmm unfortunately I don't have any other work-related documents from that period as it was only two months..
23/08 - 05/09 this is the period where I left my job because of death of my mum and on 22nd I got another job but I postponed the start date to get myself straight. I hope I don't have to prove that!
As for the 1b employer - I think I was paying tax and NI, since I have it on payslips, however I think my rate wasn't right and two years later I had to repay 200 quid or something.
How do I contact HMRC for those records? Everywhere I look online they say you can't obtain P45 or P60 from them?
In terms of risk, I realise that. Wanted to wait till September but I've already waited for so long since my Citizenship rejection so would like to at least try to get it now.. I guess if I could get anything from HMRC from that 2-month period that would make the application less-risky..
