A friend is preparing to apply for British Citizenship and wanted to get your thoughts on the 10 years good character requirements for overstayers. By way of context:

1) she overstayed my student visa from March 2009 until September 2010.

2) In September 2010, she was apprehended by immigration officers and was detained for approx 4 weeks.

3) In October 2010, she was granted bail, subsequently granted temporary admission and requested to sign on until July 2011.

4) In July 2011, she was granted DLR for 3 years and a further 3 years in 2014.

Hi there,

I want to apply for British Citizenship, and I am bit confused regarding the good character, in particular immigration offences. Back in 2013 my application for tier 4 was refused and appealed against it up to upper tribunal. My leave was extended by 3C up to the hearing on 14th of August 2013 but as my course had ended in June the same year I was sending emails and giving home office calls to return my passport since July 2013 before my upper tribunal hearing so I can return home but I got no answer at all from Home office so I had to go to my embassy and get an emergency document to get out of the country. I left the UK on 3rd of September 2013.

I have settled status now and would like to apply for BC so I requested my immigration record from the…

As per the changes to the guidance for Naturalisation as a British Citizen 15 May 2020, I do have Settled Status under the EU Settlement Scheme, however, I have not been working in the UK for the last 5 years of qualifying residence period for the Naturalisation application. Is there any discretion that will be exercised in my favour?
