I am confused about your dates, I could be wrong, but I thought the qualifying residential period was much longer (5 years in most cases) unless your partner was British? What nationality is your partner and when did you come to the UK?Lilly wrote:The stamp was issued on my passport in Decemeber 2009 despite the fact I've acquired residence status in July 2008. So as far as I understand, I could've applied for citizenship without a residence stamp in July 2009 - after the 12 months after automatic residence was acquired.
may I say with respect, dont confuse members just by writing random thoughts, which happen to be inaccurate.jimbo_uk wrote:I am confused about your dates, I could be wrong, but I thought the qualifying residential period was much longer (5 years in most cases) unless your partner was British?

The qualifying time was 5 years on non-EU relative of a Eu-National, that finished in 2008 when I acquired resident status automatically. Plus, I would need to wait 1 year after that to apply to citizenship, that makes July 2009. But the stamp on my passport was only issued in December 2009, what could be confusing to UKBA to understand.jimbo_uk wrote:I am confused about your dates, I could be wrong, but I thought the qualifying residential period was much longer (5 years in most cases) unless your partner was British?

I am now in the process to apply for my citizeship but there are 2 things nagging me, I thought the board could help?
1) I got my Permanent Residence Card, as a family-member of a EU citizen, by marriage. We are now separated, and he as moved abroad. We are not divorced as yet, and as I understand, we are still married under the UKBA rules. He is still registered at our home address, and will remain so until the place is sold. I will put his details in, and say I am married, but which address should I fill out on his address section?
1a) Once the place is sold (probably when the process will be ongoing) I will be moving in with someone else, do I have to disclosure that to the home office?
2) Do dates in-out UK have to be exact? Some countries (including my own) do not stamp passport everytime you go in or out, so it may be tricky remembering my departure dates from 3 years ago...
Thanking you for your help!
