Have I applied for Naturalisation a bit early?

Just looking for an advise.

I got ILR on 24/12/2018 using super priority. The BRP issued that date had an spelling error so HO replaced with an replacement BRP on 26/01/2019.

I applied for naturalisation on 13/01/2020. Over the application form they asked detail of my BRP which I provided from the replacement/new one, having issue date 26/01/2019.

As I applied for naturalisation on 13/01/2020, do you think I applied early as issue date of replacement BRP is 26/01/2019?

I didn’t hear anything from HO since 3 months, so a bit worried.

You'll be fine, as the date of the grant of ILR is at least one year before the date of the naturalisation application.

Thanks for your reply.

That means the issue date on replacement BRP is irrelevant in my case and they have in their system, the original settlement date which they will consider, rather new BRP issue date to calculate 12 months?

Best wishes!
