PR application question

[JsB]

Hi there

I'm new to this forum and hoping you, experienced members can help.

I've been in continuous employment in UK since 10.2005 until now and post Brexit decided as a family it's time to apply for permanent residency and British passport.

I registered for WRS for 1st job, paid fees etc, gave it to employer back then and forgot about it.
Now (after almost 12 years) it's required again to apply for residency.

In your opinion, if possible, can I advise only period between 2010 - 2016 ? Is HO bothered about period beyond 5 or 6 years?
I'm finding application to obtain copy of WRS painful and slow, besides this I didn't apply for it again after I changed jobs (only gave it to 1st employer, worked through agency first then got hired directly so handed certificate internally). This would also involve advising H.O arrival to UK in 2010 and not 2005.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Many thanks

You may use any continuous five-year period to qualify for PR so if you wish to use the period after WRS was scraped you may rely on that providing you were a qualified person.

would this not cause any issues with applying for citizenship down the line, bearing in mind I' would hide fact I arrived, lived and worked in UK 5yr earlier?

You should never try and deceive the Home Office! People have successfully applied for British Citizenship without WRS (or maybe it was late WRS registration) I believe, try searching the fourm.

on required docs page on HO website there is below statement :

Proof that Mr..... has authorisation to work as an accession state national, such as worker registration cards or certificates, accession worker card, blue or yellow registration certificate, worker authorisation (purple) registration certificate, passport endorsed with leave to remain, or proof of exemption

If one applies for PR and provides period between 04.2011 and 04.2016 what proof does HO want?
