1/ ILR applications 2 years after granting of spouse visa, ie 8 December 2011, infact 28 days before that date. (note ILR might not exist after July 2011)

2/ I would say April 2013 (5 year anniversary), BUT if you have got citizenship by then, then the day he gets ILR he could apply as he can use the 3 year route.

3/ Once naturalised he can apply for passport any day currently taking 4-6 weeks

Your case you need to provide more detail with regards to your 14 year stay, when were you 'illegal' at any stage in that period. if so when was the last time you were illegal.

I CAME TO THIS COUNTRY ON 17 MAY 1994

ON A TOURIST VISA AND STAYED .

I WAS GRANTED DISCRETIONARY LEAVE FROM MAY 2008 TILL JAN2011

GRANTED 1LR ON THE BASES OF 14 YEARS ON 19TH NOV 2009.

MY dad and mom has ILR aswell on the same bases . We have a house here and I have been working and paying taxes since last 14 years.

Would 5 years residential apply to me . If yes how and from what date .

Would I not be able to apply after 1 year of my naturilisation , which would be 19nov2010 .

I need to calculate the date for my naturilisation .

many thanks in advance

the residential requirement is 5 years or if married to a British citizen 3 years.

In my opinion the earliest you can apply is May 2013. This is because you cannot take into time when you were in the country whilst in breach of immigration laws (illegally) during the 5(3) years prior to applying (go to page 5)

Was your husband in the UK in June/July 2007? This is going back 5years from June/July 2012, when he will applying for and hopefully be granted ILR.

MORE DETAILS IF THAT HELPS TO FIGURE OUT NAT DATE
MY dad applied for ILR in 2006 adding me as dependent children
he got ILR but we were refused , reson given i did not complete 14 years and not under 18years

Then I applied again in 2007 after this refusal and got my discreationary leave to remain .

So Tecnically speaking my first application was logged in year 2006 .

QUESTION PLEASE -

DO I BECOME LEGAL FROM THE DATE MY APPLICATION WAS RECEIVED BY HOME OFFICE IN 2006 ?????????

IF YES . COULD I COUNT MY RESIDENTIAL PERIOD OF 5 YEARS FROM THAT DATE IN 2006 .

OR WHEN I APPLIED IN 2007 AND GOT GOT MY DICRETIONARY LEAVE .

OR FROM THE DATE I GOT MY DISCRETIONARY LEAVE IN MAY 2008

PLEASE LET ME KNOW AT THE EARLIEST WHEN CAN I APPLY FOR NAT.

Many thanks

Perhaps the solicitors were correct after all?

Annex B: The residence requirements wrote:8.10 We should normally exercise discretion to disregard a breach of the immigration laws if:

....

possible regularisation of the persons stay was under consideration during the period of breach - i.e. there was a pending immigration appeal OR an undetermined application for leave to enter or remain; or

Does that mean I can apply after I complete my 1 year on ILR on 19th nov.

When do I count my 5 years from .

2006 when my day applied as his dependent or

2007 when I applied for discretionary leave .

many thanks

Different soliciters say diff things Sir .

one said you start counting from 2006 and the others say from 2007 .

and some also say from 2008 when discretionary leave was given.

So I am confused .

Please be kind enough to advice me .

Many Thanks

Prior to that discretionary leave from 8th Jan 2008 ( was granted for 3 years ) but completed 14 years before so applied and got ILR . My husband has ILR after 1.5 years student + 2 years spouse on 11/11/11 last year . I have applied for NAT , but my question is can I send my husband application midway processing of my application . To be considered as joint or requesting them to see his app once they approve mine . They have approved my parents joint application the same way , but that was sent together and got approved and have attended the ceremony aswell. I am writing this from my phone not sure about the formating . Please excuse me for that . I know it is all about discretion of the case worker . But any experience or forward thinking would help . Many thanks . SM
