Hi

I'm in the process of applying for naturalisation as a British citizen. I've been married for 10 years and had ILR for the past 10 years but not applied until now.
My wife and I are seperated and even though she wants a divorce she's not willing to go through with it yet and she's not prepared to let me 'borrow' her passport or birth cirtificate for the application.

What options do I have other than wait and hope she changes her mind in future?

I thought I would be able to apply by meeting the 5 year standard requirements?

Thank you in advance.

I agree. Can't you?

Well I've not tried yet but I've assumed that if I tick the married box, which I technicaly still am, then wouldn't they expect to see a supporting document from her?

State that you are applying under Section 6(1).

Or if spouse was born in the UK, obtain an official copy of her birth certificate from GRO.

Thank you very much for the help, much appreciated.
