After naturalisation, what is shown if you type your ILR BRP number into the Right to Work check website (below)?

Nothing. The link is for immigration rules status updates. Not British citizenship!!

Nothing is shown or nothing changes?

With ILR BRP, it shows right to work. After naturalisation, what does it show if previous BRP number is entered?

I think if the home office really update their records
It should be shown like that

card or permit is not valid
Your biometric residence card or permit has either:
*expired
*been reported lost or stolen

It doesn't show anything and nothing changes as you will be British which is an application under nationality law and not the immigration rules and ilr brp is invalid once you become British.

You don't need the right to work weblink to prove your right to work if you are British!!!!

So...if the site still shows right to work, a pending naturalisation application has not been decided yet?

You are not British until you have attended your ceremony and received the certificate - not really sure what you are trying to do?

Trying to see if the right to work website can be used as a way to check status of naturalisation application. Anyone know if it can work like that?

It can't. As already stated, citizenship is NOT an immigration application!!!! The right to work link is for immigration applications and reference or brp numbers!!!

There is NO weblink to check the status of your naturalisation status.
