bit cunfused.. advise needed
Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2014 9:00 pm
Ok here is my case. I came to the UK in 1997. My asylum case was refused.. I appealed and that was refused and refused and refused. So from 2004 I was reporting every month in the immigration office until 2011 march when I received ILR ( granted out side immigration rule. )
Now, I took my time to sort myself out financially and have now applied for naturalisation ( Sept 30th ).
The confusion is what the heck is 5 years qualifying time? Is it counted since the ILR was granted? or the date I made the first application? I wonder if I have to contact the case worker to inform them I have also been married to a British citizen since 2003.
In the original application I haven't send my wife's documents , certificate as I thought its not necessary.
