Currently, I am on Tier 2 General Dependant VISA. (PreviousIy, I had to extend my dependant VISA while my wife applied for ILR)
My Wife recently applied for naturalisation.
I want to apply for British citizenship after her naturalisation is successful, using married to british spouse route.
My question is - Do I still need to apply for ILR before I apply for citizenship.

thanks, one more query - Can I apply for citizenship just after getting the ILR or need to wait for 1 year post ILR.
