You don't actually need a passport to apply for naturalisation and have a successful outcome, this is a quote from the guidancevin123 wrote:For a succesful naturalisation application, you need to have a valid passport which shows your current immigration status in the country.
RE: 1st entry & absent dates, I'm not fully sure but you may have to find alternate evidences ( like NHS-GP or workpermit docs ) to file along with old passport copies. For other absent dates, its deosn't really matter as long as you remember the dates/month that you left & re-entered UK using the old passport.

The OP said he "entered" UK using a passport 5 years ago, which means his immigration status was then recorded on the passport at a port of entry. I assumed he is applying for ILR via normal 5 year route which means the "OR" status quoted in the rules of providing a reason for alternate evidence has less probable outcome as a successful application.bbdivo wrote: You don't actually need a passport to apply for naturalisation and have a successful outcome, this is a quote from the guidance
