Hi,

I will be completing 12 month of my ILR on 22th of December 2013. I will be eligible to apply for naturalisation on or after that date.

I booked my holiday outside Europe from 25 of Nov 2013 for 1 month.

Can I use NCS to book appointment to apply for naturalisation before going on holiday ie. before 25 of Nov 2013?

Will they keep my application on hold until I complete 12 months and start process? So when I come back., I can take oath and apply for my passport.

Thank you so much in advance.

No, Not that I know off... You will have to wait until you complete 12 months on ILR. unless you qualify under Para 7.5g

If not attended in person, was this your ILR granted date or the date you posted your application?

My response should still stand and Para 7.5g doesn't applies to you.
