My family's naturalisation timeline for benefit of similar applicants:

Application type: AN + MN1 together

Eligibility criteria: ILR + just under 1 yr (both) due to becoming spouse/child of BC
Language Criteria: Trinity College Grade 5
Nationality : Non EU
Method of application: Online UKVCAS
Date of application: 14/03/19
Payment method: Credit Card
Date of acknowledgement: 16/03/19
Date of debit of fees:
Date Biometrics enrolled: 26/03/19
Date on Approval letter: 09/07/19
Date of receipt of approval: 17/07/19
Date of receipt of ceremony letter: 16/07/19
Date of Ceremony: 22/08/19, but called up council and got an advanced slot of 01/08/19
Date of Passport Application: 01/08/19
Date of debit of fees: 02/08/19
Date Passport to be received: 16/08/19

Note: MN1 registration certificate was already printed on the date of approval, but wasn't posted out, probably because it wasn't a standalone application. At the ceremony both certificates were given.

Good luck!
