Naturalisation query
Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2010 9:55 pm
Hello all,
Im in a confusing situation over my Naturalisation application , i came to the UK in Oct 2002 as a Student and got my HSMP in Nov. 2005, subsequently i applied for my ILR in 2009 ( under JR) and got ILR on 13th Oct 2009, now i want apply for my Naturalisation and i am bit confused here, does my 5 years start from my Landing in the UK or the day i was given HSMP. also in my passport ILR stamp is dated for November 09 but i have a letter from HO stating that i am deemed to be on ILR since Oct 13th.
the question is can i apply for naturalisation from 13th Oct or i have to wait until November.
any answers will be much appreciated
