I was wondering if anyone can help on this for a friend. Friend is on ILR since 1999, came as a spouse in 1998. Got divorced, he married cause of ILR. Now he wants to marry again from a girl in pak. Issue is no record of divorce, wants to apply for naturalisation, in application form it asks state if you were married or seperated, what to do?
Just mention separated

Application for BC can be independant of the spouse. Once he got ILR an independant pathway opens up.
How was the separation finalized? Decree Absolut should have been issued here if he was resident in this country and subject to family court proceedings here.
The reason I ask this question is the last think you want is for him to get arrested for Polygamy or trafficking if he marries again without having a formal annulment of his previous marriage.
cheers

Separation was through the islamic way, there is no documents for it and that was done back home.
Which application form does he needs to use?
Does he needs to mention that he is seperated? as there is no documents

quebecm,
He needs to apply normally and use the form AN.
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... orm_an.pdf
There
1.15 check the box divorced
Then fill up details of the partner from
1.37 and give all the details
and in 1.42 mention the info on when the marriage ended.

Sorry quebecm, what do you mean by: "he married cause of ILR"?

Means it was a sham marriage.
