Hi ,
I will be eligible to apply for ILR in July-2018 .
My husband is planning to apply for British Citizenship in Mar-18.
Please confirm if I need to wait for 1 year for my British Citizenship application after successful ILR application or I can apply once I receive ILR BRP .

Thanks in advance.

Looks like it will depend on when your husband becomes a British citizen I'm guessing. If he becomes a citizen say in May 2018, then whenever you get your ILR approved/granted, you will technically be married to a British citizen therefore you can apply for citizenship directly assuming you meet the other conditions like good character and residence requirements
