Hello all,
I hope you all are doing well in these crises. I have a question regarding the naturalization application, please.
1. so I got my Ilr on 27 April 2019 and I am due to apply for my naturalization on 27 April 2020.
2. I have spent 59 days outside the country already between these 11 months.
3. Can I leave the country on 6 April and apply for a naturalization application while I am outside the UK and take the biometric date when I come back to UK.
4. I got Ilr on Long Residency. Am I supposed to write 10 years travelling history or 5 years? Please if you can help with that., I will be grateful to you all

I wish you all the best in these hard times and hope you all are keeping safe.


regards,

You just apply within the UK.

Apply when you return.

You need 10 years employment history and 5 years absence history.

There is a delay with citizenship applications now as they are not priority and ukcvas centres for biometrics are now closed.
