Why a checklist helps
Most UK citizenship and settlement applications are refused or delayed over missing evidence, not eligibility. Knowing exactly what Form AN, MN1, SET(O) or SET(M) asks for — and gathering it before you start — is the single biggest thing you can do to keep your application moving. This checklist lists the documents each form requests; it does not judge whether your documents are sufficient.
Keep it current
Home Office forms and evidence requirements change. Always cross-check the current version of your form and its guidance on GOV.UK before you submit, and re-download the checklist if it has been a while.
