This does not have anything to do with the Life in UK test, which is valid indefinitely.wonderer98 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 21, 2018 3:01 pmIn the new naturalisation online application there is this question:
Knowledge of the English language
Have you met the requirement to qualify for settlement on or after 28th October 2013? (Required)
Applicants who applied for, and obtained, settlement on or after the 28th October 2013 using an English language qualification at level B1 or above can use this as evidence of their knowledge of English language. However if this qualification was not used and accepted for their settlement application, it cannot be used for this application.
Can someone please explain in clear language?
The way I unerstand it: I pass Life in the UK on 1/1/2019, tick yes to this question and I am OK.
Yes if you have a UK degree and you will need to submit your degree cert as proof.wonderer98 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 21, 2018 3:45 pmSo if I have graduated from UK University in 2011 do I say "yes" and I am ok?
Has anyone just sent e.g. letter confirming employment for the past 5-6 years till now in one company?Proof of living in the UK:
If you are an EEA National, you need to include letters from employers, educational establishments, or other Government Departments indicating your presence in the United Kingdom during the relevant period.
That's acceptable - for my application I included a letter covering ten years with the same employer (although I worked/work for them much longer than that) - no issue - and you don't need to provide P60s.wonderer98 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 30, 2018 5:34 pmIn Naturalisation online application 1 required piece of the evidence is:

which to me sounds like a letter only.proof of freedom from immigration time restrictions
You must provide one of the following documents:
your passport showing you are able to remain permanently in the UK
other (for example, a letter from the Home Office, your BRP card or other proof of exemption from immigration control)
ANDThe Home Office letter by which you were given permission to remain
permanently in the UK
A document certifying permanent residence or a permanent residence card
issued by the Home Office
Once it's answered "YES" you must "Enter your permanent residence card number" and a new list of required evidence appears:Are you either:
a) An EEA national who has been issued with a document certifying permanent residence
b) A family member of an EEA national who has been issued with a permanent residence card
I understand that I need to send 3 thingsYou must include your:
1. passport or EEA national identity card
2. UK permanent residence card
3. evidence of freedom from immigration time restrictions
I am fairly certain the online application is wrong and the 'evidence of freedom from immigration time restrictions' is not required in this case. If you read the paper form, it says under supporting documents for section 5:wonderer98 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 22, 2019 3:28 pmI think I can answer my own question.

1. passport
2. DCPR
3. Letter from Home Office with "Date acquired permanent residence status"
Right?
Section 4 involves PR. In supporting documents for section 4 it says:SECTION 5 Evidence of freedom from immigration time restrictions:required for all applicants
except those covered by SECTION 4 above
So dependents are allowed as well to use just the permanent residence (and a matching passport) for 2. and 3.... or their non-EEA direct family members ...
Yes.When I apply online from inside the UK for a passport do I need a countersignatory?
The online form will likely have a page for it. The paper form clearly has a page where they sign.If so, when? There is no mention of that when I did a mock-up passport application. What is the process?
No - as long as you comply withe the AN requirement, including holding PR in the UK.wonderer98 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 17, 2019 10:25 amIs holding a Permanent Resident Status in Poland an obstacle to obtaining British Citizenship?
No - economic activity as such is not a requirement for naturalisation.
If you are still in employment at the time of application you should state "to date" (garden leave is just a contractual agreement).wonderer98 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 1:09 pmWhen a person applies for Citizenship which date should that person put as end of employment due to redundancy?
1. Last working day before Garden Leave - e.g. 01.02.2019
2. Last day on Payroll e.g. 01.05.2019?
I have to pass on this .... never done online ... perhaps explain separately in a note or letter?wonderer98 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2019 10:33 pmI work for 2 employers - how to put that in Naturalisation online application?
When I apply for Naturalisation and submit that I work for an employer without an end date - that is fine.
But I do not know how to put that I also work sometimes for another employer - as form asks me for an end date.
Any ideas?
There is no specific rule on this - not sure where "one month" comes from - clearly the date on the document should relate what you are trying to prove, such as residency.When submitting documents from employers do they have validity of only one month?
