This forum helped me a lot when I was stuck to get ILR so hopefully I will get help again from you honest people.
Now I am applying for British Citizenship. My visa history is I came to UK in 2015 on student visa and was on student visa until 2010 and then got PSW visa.
Looks like you have got your date mixed up
The problem is one visa is missing which is the one before PSW. The last visa stamp I found on my passport before PSW visa was expired in 2009 and I applied PSW in 2010. Now I cannot find a visa between 2009 and 2010. I am filling Citizenship form and they are asking my visa history where I need to mention these visa's.
before PSW, you must have applied for student visa. You just need to provide the name on which you made the application, rough date when you made the application, was application made inside the UK or outside and if biometric was taken as part of the application and when.
You are thinking too much about missing stamp if it was in 2010. You need to list you travel history for last 5 years and if married to BC then 3 years. You can also prove your continuous residence by using p60/p45/Council tax and all
Please help me as I am bit worried now.
Thanks in advance

You will be absolutely fine with that so do not worry much. It clearly says Date of application, if known - so do your best and try giving as close to when you could have made the application.saadasif wrote: ↑Tue Feb 23, 2021 12:58 pmThank you for your replyskasyap wrote: ↑Mon Feb 22, 2021 11:26 pmsaadasif wrote: ↑Mon Feb 22, 2021 9:00 pmHi guys,

yeah you are right, I came in 2005 not 2015. sorry for the typo.
I got my ILR via 10 years route and in the citizenship forum, they have asked your applications history so I need to mentioned all of them. Will they not check my passport for visa stamps?
I do not remember the dates of applications but I can guess month, will it be ok?
I am applying online and form link is below

No they are not going to check stamp on your passport to verify the date.
Question says
1) Name in which you made the application (your name which you used to make the application )
2) date of application if known - ( in my application I simply stated like April 2010 )
3) enter your reference number if known ( if you had any communication via email or letter then you can find that)
4) was the application made in UK - Yes /no
5) were your fingerprints taken as part of this application: Yes /no and date if you known
So do not stress much about Stamp as you are not going to use that stamp as continues residence in the uk for last 5 years or 3 years. And even if the stamp was missing for continuous residence you can simply use other documents to prove that.

No problem and all the best. Most of us have been through this plus I panic more than anyone else so I completely understand where you coming from. Just make sure you check your questions and answers carefully before submitting.
