Good character for BC vs ILR

Hi

I was just wondering, if you were given ILR, then lived for one year in UK without any problems, and apply for naturalisation, does it mean you should be ok for good character requirements because you were already eligible for ILR and since then you did not do anything wrong, etc. Or they are more strict for Naturalisation than ILR? So can they say, you were fine for ILR but not good enough for Citizenship? I mean even if you are exactly the same as you were when you got ILR?

Cheers.

Different criteria, what's the offence, sentence and date of sentence?

Strange, you could have anonymised your query.

This forum is all about sharing information, advice and experiences but anyways no worries if you don't want to share the advice you received as it could have benefited the others who were in the similar scenario :(

Maxwell has been around on this forum to know better, I'm very sure the info given by the so called experienced solicitor is nothing we've not heard of before trust me....
