Hi All,

I need advise for applying for naturalization along with me as I am not sure whether she is eligible or not

I came in dec 2006 and got my ILR in july 2013 .Now I am applying for Naturalization ( 5yrs + 1 yr )

My wife came to UK in mar-2008 and she was dependent until july-2013. During this period she was out of Uk for 316 days

She got ILR in june -2013 and during this period she was out of UK for 50 days . ( last 1 year )

Altogether she is out of for 366 days .

I am not sure she also has to complete the 5 +1 yrs or Is she eligible as per the UKBA Residential requirements mentioned below


To demonstrate the residential requirements for naturalization, you must have:

been resident in the UK for at least five years (this is known as the residential qualifying period); and
been present in the UK five years before the date of your application; and
not spent more than 450 days outside the UK during the five-year period; and
not spent more than 90 days outside the UK in the last 12 months of the five-year period; and
not been in breach of the Immigration Rules at any stage during the five-year period.


Please advice

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Me and my wife got the ILR IN 2013 FEBRUARY on tier 1. I completed 5 years on tier 1 visa which i got in feb 2008 but My wife got the dependent visa in 2009 and she came here to live in january 2010. Now in February I am going to apply for citizenship after completing one year on ILR. My question is that can she apply with or not although her 1 year completed after ILR but at the whole she only spent 4 years. Advice required.

Thanks
Kam
