When can I apply for British citizenship

Post by Need-help » Sat Mar 20, 2010 10:40 am

Hi,

I first entered UK in Jan 2006, in Jan 2010 I got my ILR. Thanks to immigrationboards for their support and help.

The letter which I have received from home office with ILR is backdated with Nov 2009. (As in Nov 2005 my initial entry clearance was stamped).

Can I apply for British citizenship in Nov 2010 or should I wait till Jan 2011?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Cheers

January 2011, as you must have been present in the uk exactly five years before the date on which your application reaches the home office, as you weren't physically present in the UK in November 2005, you cannot apply in November 2010.
