Hi All,

I'm sorry if this question being repeated.

I got ILR status on 16th SEP 2011. So my Eligibility for Naturalisation on 16th SEP 2012. I am planning to submit my application through Nationality Checking Service (NCS). But 16th SEP 2012 falls on Sunday. Can I submit my application 14th SEP 2012 Friday at NCS? I presume, application date is a date that Home Office receive the application, not NCS?


Your single-line answer would really be useful. Many thanks.

Couldn't you wait and apply on the 17th? What if NCS staff turn you down as you haven't completed 1yr yet.

if i were you i wouldnt take the risk. i would wait until 17 Sept. will a few days make that much of a difference to you?

Thank you both manoj and kel. I can't apply 17th abd 18th. But try on 19th.

No you can't. I got my ILR on the 16th of May 2011. At my local council they have the NCS service on Wednesday every week. and 16th of May2012 was a Wednesday, I was told that I am eligible only from the 17th and I was asked to book in on the 23rd.

So going by that logic, don't think you can apply on the 17th even if were a weekday

Hi

I think it depends on NCS and it varies with council.

I have received ILR on 24/8/11 and I have booked with NCS Bracknell on 24/8/12 and they have no issues.

Thank you all for your wonderful response.
