I received ILR on 25-06-2018

Can I apply for Naturalization exactly on 25-06-2019 ?

I know waiting for a day isn't a issue for most, but I am on a very tight schedule.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, make sure you were also physically present in the UK on the same date at the start of the 5 year qualifying period.

I am in UK for more then 10 years, I applied and received TIer 2 from UK as well...

so nothing to worry about in terms of 5 years I guess ?

Thank you for prompt reply !

I think what CR001 is referring to is that you need to be physically present in the UK on the date 5 years ago from the date you apply for naturalisation.

Exactly, i.e not away on holiday or business trip etc but actually physically present in the UK.

Oh, I didn't knew that could be a issue, I will look at my holiday records and double check.

Do I need to delay my application if I was on 2 months holidays but less then 90 days, exactly 5 years ago ?

Yes you would have to delay the application till you meet the requirement. The physically present requirement is mandatory and if you fail this, you will be refused and lose your fee.

Note the physically present and 90 days in last 12 months are TWO separate requirements.

I had holidays in august 2014, but I was in UK in June 2014.

All good for me then :D
