You cannot change the form once you have submitted.
Best to write a covering letter.

Simply write the error that you have made and include the details.

You don't. You are overthinking.

You are overthinking. Simply include a letter with your supporting documentation explaining the mistake.

You can also print out the completed form, correct it by hand on the form or write a note on the forum and attach to the letter.

No. Carer allowance is a benefit, not employment.

If it is at the correct level, a test and tedt provider on ho list and used in a previous application it should be accepted.

Hi CR001..I am applying for my naturalization first, my husband will apply later this year... Will home office object to this as to why my husband is not applying as I don't work and have never worked?

Please don't worry. That's the way the online application works. You input previous addresses and dates. The system then assumes you have lived at your current address since the last date of living at your previous address.
I agree it is not clear, but I did the same and I have been approved already.

Presumably your current address info has already been completed in the form. Previous addresses require the dates etc.
Why are you stressing and panicking so much and reposting/nudging for urgent response after only 5 minutes. The forum is not an 'on demand' service and we are not logged in 24/7.

Thnx John and cr001 for your prompt reply
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
the reason for my panicking is that I have gone through quite a lot of stessful time when my ilr was refused. I don't want my application to be refused again. So just being overcautious
