Naturalisation

[MarioSA]

Hi Folks,

When applying for citizenship after ILR, does one have to give the full five year’s worth of periods absent from the UK (again) or just the last year?

Thanks

All the 5 years.

Can my former manager who has known me for 3 years be a naturalisation referee? And can my family doctor G.P. be a professional referee? They have know me atleast 3 years but professionally.

As long as they are happy to be one I can`t see why not...

Thanks very much. Another question: I am now working with a Company based in London, but they process the payslips from their office in Scotland. All HR queries are directed to scotland too. On the AN form, which office address & tax office should I put in? The one in London or the one in scotland?

Have you got any correspondence with inland revenue (hmrc) like paye coding notice etc? I would put that tax office address in the application. As for the reference, I wrote my UTR (tax reference) when I applied.

Hope it helps.
