Naturalisation under Section 6(1) or 6(2)?

Good morning,

Just a quick question to check, does it make any difference in the long run (i.e. passing on my citizenship to children or anything else), if I apply under Section 6(1) and provide evidence for 5 years, or under Section 6(2) and provide evidence for 3 years?

I am eligible under both routes as my permanent residence card (BRP) was issued in 2018 and I'm married to a BC. Thank you.

No it does not make a difference.

No difference, however note, Section 6(2) is usually processed quicker. Also, you will need marriage certificate and spouse’s British passport copy for this.
