Hi Amber / Seniors,

Judging from a few of the naturalisation timeline posts, the processing of applications seems to take a minimum of four odd weeks. My "1 year on ILR requirement" will be completed on 4-April-2015. With this in mind, I’m dabbling with the idea of submitting my application (via post) a month earlier on 4-Mar-2015. By the time the case worker does the necessary checks the 1 year requirement would have elapsed. Thoughts Amber / Seniors ?

That will not work. Its not the date CW works on your application HO considers. It's the date HO receives your application matters. I suggest you apply no earlier than 3rd of April.
