Hello All,

I'll be completing a full 1 year on my ILR on 28th June 2020, can I submit my online application for the citizenship now and book an appointment after 28th June (just to make sure I have completed one year by then) so I can access earlier appointment?

Thanks

The date of application is the date you submit and pay online and NOT the biometric appointment date.

You must wait the full 12 months on ILR before you apply if you are not married to a British citizen.
