Hello All
My passport from country of origin (non eea) expired last year (Aug 2020). Im ILR (10yr route+ 3years). Im planning to apply for british passport and was looking at naturalisation procedure online. On the online form, under documents to be submitted, there is a tick box for "proof of living in the Uk for mr xxx for 5 years if applying in your own right or 3 years if applying as the spouse of a british citizen'.
And then it says below' if you are a non eea you need to prove you have lived in uk for the relevant 3 or 5 year period
If you do not have your passport or it was not stanped when you entered the uk, you need to include letters (for e.g from your employer or govt dept) as proof.'
My question is, does my passport although expired in aug 2020 cover residency uptil now? My passport was stamped on last entry (jan 2020) and i havent left the country since Aug 2020, neither on a new passport (which i didnt apply for) nor on a travel document. On that basis, will my passport suffice or do i need to have proof of residency from August 2020 till now?
Many thanks
