ILR to naturalization and british citizenship
Posted: Fri Jun 03, 2016 8:28 pm
Hi everyone,
i need help..
my situation-
came to uk in july 2011 after marriage on tier 1 dependent visa
i got my tier 1 extension in april 2013 and at the same time my husband got his ILR. i didnt qualify for the ILR that time as we have not completed 2 years after marriage.
my husband got british citizenship in april 2015.
i got my ILR in march 2016.
my question is when can i apply for naturalization? as a spouse of british citizen can i apply immediately? or do i need to wait 1 year after my ILR?
i spoke to one of the solicitor, he says i need to wait 1 year for naturalization after ILR and it doesnt matter even if iam a spouse of british citizen.
please guys help me out with this as we are planning to move to other country on work purpose.
