AM I eligible for British Citizenship (Seperated EEA family

Post by okid206 » Mon Mar 14, 2011 12:37 pm

Hi guys! :D

I’d like to apply for the British Citizenship but I am not so sure whether I am entitled to do it.
Here is my brief history.
Firstly, I am not an EU citizen.
I was a student for 8 years. During that time, I met a person (EU citizen).
After graduation, I got a family member of EEA visa for 2 years (non married). After that I got another 5 year family member of EEA visa expiring on 2013 (non married).
However we got separated in 2009 so that I applied ILR under 10 year residency which I was granted on Aug 2009.
and finally, I've been working fulltime last 5 years.
So here’s the question, am I entitled to apply for the British Citizenship now? I thought I could but I was not entirely sure..

Thank you for your advice in advance! :D

You may apply for naturalisation as and when you fulfil the standard requirements. If you already do (meet the requirements), you may apply any day.
Life isn't fair, but you can be!
