I have a big dilemma now, I received a much dreaded letter from HO refusing my application for PRC because I had no comprehensive sickness insurance during my university studies.
I mean I never heard of it, but my situation is this...
I lived in the UK since I was 14 with my parents, after secondary school I went to college and then straight to university I haven't had any kind of job until I finished uni, that's three years ago. So I've lived in the UK for 11 years but only 3 years out of 11 I was and still am in a full time employment. That means my student years don't count toward my required 5 years for PRC because I didn't have that insurance. Anyway, I never heard about that insurance, no one ever mentioned it to me so I naturally don't have it. Now I am stuck in a situation as in what to do. Does it mean I actually can't get PRC? Even though I feel so British. I feel really cheated and disappointed and quite honestly let down. I really want British passport so I can have a say in next elections and because I just feel extremely British- I am so British I can't even speak my mother tongue anymore.
Can anyone help what I can do about this situation, or does it mean I have no right to apply for PRC and just give up?

Next option could be my mother, she has been working full time for more than 10 years so she is definitely going to get it. Is it possible I could apply with her, having my mum as the main applicant on the application and me acting as a family member? My question is...would I still need to prove that insurance cover?
Thanks for any answers, I am quite desperate for any help.
