Hi all,

Quick question regarding my AN application for naturalization..

I got my PR on 18.12.2013 and would like to apply for my naturalisation on 18.12.2014. I have fulfilled all the relevant requirements just wanted to know whether I can apply exactly after 12 months?

Thanks in advance..

A British citizen by descent is a person born outside the UK and is acquired if one or both parents are British citizens. This means that you cannot automatically pass on British citizenship to any child who is born abroad.
