Good Character for Citizenship (Refugee)

[Oki toner]

Hello guys,

I need help please, I am looking forward to apply for naturalisation. But I wanted some advice on my situation.

I came in UK to escape prosecution from my home country in 2013. I have entered the UK illegally by air with the help of an agent, using someone's passport. We had transit in two African countries to change the plane.
I brought myself to the authority near Croydon the same day I have entered, applied for asylum the same day and was granted asylum straightway in 2015 for my initial decision.
I have a british spouse.
I got ILR in 2020 and I am about to apply for citizenship but I wanted to know if I will be penalised for entered the UK illegally? Or discretion will be applied on my case.
And regarding the port of entry I don't remember if it was Heathrow or Gatwick, so I have no idea what I will be answering on my application.

Hope to hearing from you soon.

Thank you.

Your case is not as complicated as you are thinking.As an asylum seeker even if you entered UK illegally but best think you have done is presented yourself to immigration withing a month which they consider of good character .So don't worry & apply for nationality.If they refuse you challenge it & can win it.
