Further questions for good character in naturalisation

Post by Lizkim » Mon Feb 04, 2019 12:25 pm

I applied for naturalisation in 2018. I received a letter today stating that I need to explain how I supported myself during that time that was not here legally or else my application will be refused. To be honest I thought they will automatically refuse it but now there is a tiny bit of hope. Anyone received such a letter? My short story: arrived 2002 and claimed asylum which was refused in 2008. So no contact with ho till dec 2010 when I made fresh claim. Dlr to issues 2012 and then 2015. Ilr granted in July, 2018. Naturalisation application in October 2018( married to BC) so didn’t have to wait for 12 months
Thank you

Well your situation is unique. If you get to explain how you managed it financially in the UK as an illegal migrant (withouting working illegally) then you might be given BC

Doubtful UKVI will accept friends' letters.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.
